UVC LEDs: the right light for germicidal applications
This image shows testing of UVC LEDs developed at the Fraunhofer Institute of Optronics, System Technologies and Image Exploitation in Ilmenau. California's Bolb says that its disruptive approach to device layer fabrication delivers much better efficiency and output power, suggesting that deep-UV applications like surface, air, and water disinfection could be dramatically boosted with cheaper, more effective, and more readily available UVC emitters. © Fraunhofer IOSB-AST/Martin Käßler
