Since the epidemic, the popularity of deep-ultraviolet light-emitting diodes has continued to rise. The leading domestic lighting company, G20-LED Summit member companies and Xiamen University have launched an industry-university cooperation project to jointly study deep-ultraviolet sterilization and disinfection projects.
According to the data, the cooperative project is "Research and Industrialization of Deep Ultraviolet Sterilization". The project will provide technical research reports on the application of ultraviolet light sterilization, damage to human skin and eyes, and protection, and the use of ultraviolet light to kill bacteria and viruses Carry out empirical research on the effective dose of
According to the introduction of the School of Electronic Science and Technology of Xiamen University, the topic of the project is: the development and industrialization of intelligent, efficient and miniaturized deep-ultraviolet light-emitting diode disinfection devices. It mainly studies the killing characteristics of deep-ultraviolet light-emitting diodes against common bacteria, viruses, fungi and other pathogens. Provide a scientific basis for the sterilization mechanism, radiation dose, stability and reliability, and wavelength optimization of deep ultraviolet light-emitting diodes under the premise of ensuring human safety.
The project will serve as an industrial extension of the emergency project of Xiamen University. It will give full play to the experience and advantages of Tongjia in the design and production process of lighting lamps. By optimizing the deep ultraviolet wavelength and radiation dose parameters, and combining intelligent sensor protection technology to realize the UV lamps Effective sterilization and disinfection in different application scenarios.
Tongjia Optoelectronics believes that under the background of the new crown epidemic, the global market has great demand for deep ultraviolet sterilization and disinfection products, and deep ultraviolet sterilization and disinfection will become an important development direction in the semiconductor optoelectronics field in the future.
Since the epidemic, the coronavirus is sensitive to ultraviolet rays and heat, and ultraviolet sterilization has been pushed to the public's attention for a while. In addition to some LED manufacturers that produce ultraviolet germicidal lamps, they have become popular companies in the capital market, and more companies have begun to focus on this high niche market.
As market demand gradually increases, more companies are influx. Some people in the industry believe that "follow-up deep-ultraviolet light-emitting diode market competition will be very fierce, even fiercer than the general lighting market.
However, many UV LED veterans have unanimously pointed out that the follow-up UV LED market competition may be fierce, but the possibility of overcapacity is unlikely.
A person in charge of a lighting company’s UV LED said, “Although the outbreak of UVC LEDs was caused by the epidemic, after the epidemic, the public’s requirements for a healthy life will be further increased. The market will still be overheated, so there is overcapacity. It's too early."
According to data from the Light Emitting Diode Research Institute (GGII), with the maturity of UV LED technology and the decline in the price of UV LED devices, the penetration rate of UV LEDs will continue to increase. GGII predicts that the global UV LED market will reach 3.55 billion yuan in 2020 .
