REVIEW Development of Deep Ultraviolet LED Packaging
Abstract: Deep UV LED package is a hotspot of growing concern for research scholars, it is through the LED semiconductor light-emitting devices emit UVC band ultraviolet (typical wavelength 260 ~ 280nm), is a new type of healthy artificial light source, compared with the traditional UV light source mercury lamps, the deep UV LED has a wavelength of accurate and controllable, green, and so on many advantages. Due to the high-energy deep UV radiation capability, it has a strong bactericidal and inactivation effect on bacteria, viruses and other microorganisms. In recent years, with the continuous progress of deep packaging technology, the optical efficiency and reliability of deep UV LEDs have been significantly improved. This paper summarizes the key technologies of deep-ultraviolet packaging, the performance of deep-ultraviolet LEDs and the application of deep-ultraviolet LEDs; through the understanding of the packaging materials, packaging structure, packaging process and so on to improve the performance of deep-ultraviolet LEDs, so that it is better to apply to the market, which can be seen that the deep-ultraviolet LEDs have a great prospect for development.

Study of UV-C LED Technology on In-door Air Disinfection: An Effective Mercury-free and Ozone-free Method to Irradicate Airborne Microorganisms
Abstract: The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of a novel air sterilization system on airborne microorganisms in both lab envi-ronment and office environment. Here we used a UV-C LED based technique to continuously purify the air. It was observed that in lab testing environment, the disinfection rate of the UV-C LED system is 99.94% against staphylococci albus (8032) within a 20 m3 space in 2 hours, while 99.6%, 99.02% and 98.65% against natural microorganisms in 2 hours within 100 m3, 150 m3 and 210 m3 space respectively. Additionally, for a 5-day onsite testing conducted in normally operating offices, the results show a disinfection rate up to 92% against natural airborne microorganisms. The results also show zero ozone emission from the UV-C LED based air sterilization de-vices. This study demonstrates a promising role for this UV-C LED based novel technology in infection control and prevention by de-creasing the spread of airborne pathogens effectively and efficiently without introducing hazardous mercury or any chemicals.

What Is UV-C Disinfection?
Ultraviolet (UV) light is a type of electromagnetic radiation that exists beyond the visible light spectrum. It is divided into three main categories based on wavelength: UV-A, UV-B, and UV-C. Among these, UV-C light, which ranges from 200 to 280 nanometers (nm), is the most energetic and has the strongest germicidal properties. This specific range of UV light can effectively kill or inactivate microorganisms by disrupting their DNA and RNA.
