Due to the recent COVID-19 pandemic the need for disinfection technologies has skyrocketed. One of these technologies is disinfection using UV-C LEDs. Disinfection with UV-C LEDs can help reduce the spread of viruses such as the Corona virus as well as other germs. In this application note, the working mechanism behind disinfection with UV-C radiation is shown, as well as example simulations to understand how to achieve disinfection. As UV-C radiation can damage skin and eye tissue, safety aspects are also addressed.
