LG Innotet has developed the world's largest power 70mW UV-C LED

Seoul, South Korea, February 23, 2017 LG Innotet has developed the world's most powerful UV-C LED for sterilization, with an LED optical power of up to 70 milliwatts (mW) at 280 nanometers (nm). The bactericidal power is 1.5 times higher than the existing 40mW class LED, which can sterilize running water and air.

The UV-C LED is sterilized in a UV (UV) LED at a wavelength of 200 to 280 Ã…. Destruction of DNA from bacteria such as Escherichia coli and Salmonella prevents them from multiplying.

So far, UV-C LEDs have been used primarily in small hygiene products. This is because its optical power is low and the bactericidal power is weak. The LED for the toothbrush sterilizer is 1 mW, and the LED for humidifying the humidifier sink is 2 mW.

LG Innotet uses the vertically developed vertical LED chip technology to break through the optical power limitations of existing UV-C. The power is continuously increased, and the generated heat is effectively discharged, thereby ensuring high quality reliability.

It has a length and width of 6 mm (mm) and a thickness of 1.35 mm. Although it is smaller than nails, its bactericidal performance is the highest in the world.

It is also suitable for hardened equipment in the manufacturing industry. Due to the high UV output, the performance of the curing device can be improved.

Water purification, purification or hardening manufacturers can steadily obtain the most suitable UV-C LED supply from LG Innote. This is because LG Innotet has a series of production systems from epitaxial wafers to chips, packages, and modules, and provides products through strict quality management.

LG Innotet has a 280nm UVC LED and a lineup of products suitable for various applications, from 365nm, 385nm, 395nm, 405nm UV-A LEDs to sterilization and medical 305nm UV-B LEDs.

The relevant person of the club said: "LG Inuit's policy is to continue to expand the application of UV-C LED."

According to market research firm Yole Developpement, the global UV LED market will grow from around $130 billion in 2015 to $270 million in 2017.
