Ultraviolet light emitting diodes (UV-LEDs) have rapidly evolved as a promising alternative to conventional mercury-based UV lamps in water disinfection systems. Their compact size, reduced energy ...

Tokyo, Japan – Scientists from Tokyo Metropolitan University have developed a new electrode material for deep-ultraviolet (DUV) light-emitting diode applications. They used a cutting-edge ...

Recent advancements in fabrication technology have enabled the development of lateral AlGaN-based ultraviolet (UV)-light-emitting devices. However, they suffer from low light output power. Now ...

Researchers successfully conducted a room-temperature continuous-wave lasing of a deep-ultraviolet laser diode (wavelengths down to the UV-C region).

Exhaust fans are critical in rooms with small or no windows at all.( Learn more about bathroom exhaust fans.) Ironically, ...

Bird strikes are up by as much as 33 percent in recent years. Could an ultraviolet (UV) light-emitting diode (LED) installed on general aviation aircraft help prevent dangerous bird strikes?

HealthDay News — At-home light-emitting diode (LED) devices are effective for treating acne, according to a research letter published online in JAMA Dermatology.

Together, they make the white light you see when the sun -- the main source of blue light -- is shining. Fluorescent and LED (light-emitting diode) light bulbs also give off blue light.

Too much exposure to blue light could lead to insomnia and symptoms of depression. Learn more about how it can affect your mental health.

CFLs last much longer than traditional incandescents but still require more electricity than light-emitting diode bulbs, or LEDs. Read on: What to Know About the Ban on Incandescent Lightbulbs ...
