Abstract:
An adjustable multi-wavelength lamp is described. The lamp can include a plurality of emitters. The emitters can include at least one ultraviolet emitter, at least one visible light emitter, and at least one infrared emitter. The lamp can include a control system for controlling operation of the plurality of emitters. The control system can be configured to selectively deliver power to any combination of one or more of the plurality of emitters to generate light approximating a target spectral distribution of intensity.
Abstract:
A solution for packaging a two terminal device, such as a light emitting diode, is provided. In one embodiment, a method of packaging a two terminal device includes: patterning a metal sheet to include a plurality of openings; bonding at least one two terminal device to the metal sheet, wherein a first opening corresponds to a distance between a first contact and a second contact of the at least one two terminal device; and cutting the metal sheet around each of the least one two terminal device, wherein the metal sheet forms a first electrode to the first contact and a second electrode to the second contact.
Abstract:
An ultraviolet illuminator for providing a cleaning treatment to a medical device is disclosed. The ultraviolet illuminator can include an ultraviolet cleaning treatment system that operates in conjunction with at least one ultraviolet radiation source and sensor to clean surfaces of a medical device for purposes of disinfection, sterilization, and/or sanitization. The ultraviolet illuminator is suitable for a wide variety of medical devices, instruments and equipment. Stethoscopes and medical instrument probes are illustrative examples of some devices that can be used with the ultraviolet illuminator.
Abstract:
A solution for disinfecting a screen of an item using ultraviolet radiation is provided. The solution can provide an electronic device including a screen utilized by a user of the electronic device. The screen can be an ultraviolet transparent screen that covers at least some of the internal portion of the electronic device and a set of ultraviolet radiation sources can be located adjacent to the transparent screen. The set of ultraviolet radiation sources can be configured to generate ultraviolet radiation directed towards an external surface of the ultraviolet transparent screen. The electronic device can further include a monitoring and control system, which can manage the ultraviolet radiation generation by monitoring a set of attributes relating to the external surface of the screen and controlling, based on the monitoring, ultraviolet radiation directed at the external surface of the screen.

Abstract:
A solution for evaluating a sample gas for a presence of a trace gas, such as ozone, is provided. The solution uses an ultraviolet source and an ultraviolet detector mounted in a chamber. The chamber can include reflecting walls and/or structures configured to guide ultraviolet light. A computer system can operate the ultraviolet source in a high power pulse mode and acquire data corresponding to an intensity of the ultraviolet radiation detected by the ultraviolet detector while a sample gas is present in the chamber. Using the data, the computer system can determine a presence and/or an amount of the trace gas in the sample gas.

Abstract:
A thermal management structure for a device is provided. The thermal management structure includes electroplated metal, which connects multiple contact regions for a first contact of a first type located on a first side of the device. The electroplated metal can form a bridge structure over a contact region for a second contact of a second type without contacting the second contact. The thermal management structure also can include a layer of insulating material located on the contact region of the second type, below the bridge structure.
