The company claims that it is the first LED manufacturer to deliver record flux numbers up to 700mW at 365nm. The company further boasts that the newly available UVC LEDs have the highest flux densities available today equating to 2300 mW/cm2. These products can be utilized in applications for adhesive and paint curing, sterilization, skin treatment, forensics particle detection, currency verification, fluorescence and blacklight blue.

"Our new 365nm UVC LEDs utilize LedEngin's proven highly reliable LED packaging technology with low thermal resistance, UV- resistant glass lens, and compact form to produce the most robust, highest flux density UV LED available today," said Uwe Thomas, Director of Technical Marketing, LedEngin. "Customers have been waiting for this specific wavelength to replace expensive, power-hungry and toxic Mercury lamps in a range of curing, medical and security applications. Our LEDs deliver the performance to shorten curing times, improve visibility in forensics and security applications and increase detection distances."

LedEngin 365nm emitters feature rugged, reliable performance in a compact form factor, which the company says provides record flux densities with exceptional optical system efficiency. The RoHS compliant devices has a surface-mount ceramic package with integrated non-degrading glass lens. It is rated with a JEDEC Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 for unlimited shelf life.
