Crystal IS expands line of UVC LEDs

Crystal IS’s newest Optan product is a deep UV LED in a TO-39 package with a flat window. Like the recently introduced Optan ball lens (BL) and surface mount devices (SMD), the high-performance UVC LED is based on native Aluminum Nitride (AlN) substrates, Crystal IS’s award winning, proprietary technology. Optan is the only lattice matched commercial UVC LED available today. Optan provides a unique technology platform for increased detection sensitivity, proven to overcome limitations of other UVC LEDs in the market as well as traditional UV lamps including deuterium and xenon flash lamps.
