Crystal IS (Green Island, NY) augmented the Optan SMD (surface mount device) product line for instrumentation with the addition of higher light output and wavelength specific bins (SKUs). This newest offering resulted from increased demand for UVC LEDs in fluorescence spectroscopy, imaging, and biofouling control. Like other Optan products, the high-performance UVC LED uses lattice matched native aluminum nitride (AlN) substrates. The new devices output light at wavelengths from 250 nm – 280 nm.
