UV-C LED Prospect

With LED technology development, LED applications in market are more and more wide. UV-C LED germicidal disinfection applications market also reaches a new height in 2016, prospects are bright. With more and more LED companies launch new products, UV-C LED technology will also develop faster.

Wavelength of 200~280nm UV part is called UV-C region; this region UV wavelength is short and has high energy. UV-C wavelength light has a great destructive effect on the body’s bacteria, viruses and micro-organisms. Sterilization principle is that UV-C lights irradiate bacteria and viruses etc single cell microbes, which directly destruct its life center DNA and RNA, and make it immediate death or loss of reproductive capacity. Generally, 1~2 seconds UV-C irradiation can achieve the sterilization effective. UV-C disinfection method has the advantages of fast speed, thorough, non-pollution, easy to operate and use and low cost maintenance.

UV-C LEDs are widely used in below applications:

• Germicidal Disinfection
• Water Purification
• Surface Sterilization
• Air Purification
• Analytical Instrumentation, Emitters
• Protein Analysis, DNA Sequencing, Drug Discovery
• Optical Sensing
• Ozone Monitoring
