Forensic investigators and researchers utilize a variety of light sources to examine the evidence found at a crime scene. Among a plethora of light sources, Ultraviolet (UV) light, in particular, has gained a positive reputation for efficient and effective examination of biologically contaminated evidence. As [...]
It is not every day that businesses deal with the problem of receiving counterfeit currency. Be that as it may, this act of forgery — despite its infrequency — cannot be overlooked. It goes without saying that this deliberate attempt to defraud the receiver is fraudulent, and that makes it [...]
Recent studies have shown that a wide variety of such contaminants exist at trace concentrations in all water supplies and in the air. Ultraviolet germicidal irradiation (UVGI) is a method of disinfection that uses short-wavelength ultraviolet (UV-C) light to kill or inactivate microorganisms by destroying nucleic acids and disrupting their [...]
Ultraviolet or UV energy is found in the electromagnetic spectrum between visible light and x-rays and can best be described as invisible radiation. In order to kill microorganisms, the UV rays must actually strike the cell. UV, or ultraviolet light, disinfects waste water by damaging the DNA and RNA of [...]
A recent advancement in the technology of the traditional interferometer, spectrally controlled interferometry (SCI), improves the manufacturing of optics that has multiple flat surfaces. […]
Ultraviolet lenses are used in many focusing, collimation, or laser applications that operate within the ultraviolet spectrum. They are optical lenses that consist of a single, or multiple elements that have been designed for optimal performance when used in ultraviolet light. […]
Ultra-violet printing is not a new technology. As a matter of fact, it has been utilized with great success for more than a decade in the flexographic printing industry. UV print technology offers a higher quality print as compared to water-based or solvent ink systems. […]
One of the most effective means of purifying water is through the use of ultraviolet (UV) rays. UV rays can disinfect water and kill bacteria, it can also penetrate any harmful pathogens in drinking water and destroy the microorganisms that can cause illness. The way UV rays work is by [...]
Researchers from Penn Medicine have discovered that ultraviolet (UV) robots can help to reduce the rate of common bacterial infections transmitted in hospital settings. The robots are programmed to flash UV lights into a hospital room that will lock onto the DNA of bacteria and organisms and destroy them. The [...]
