Single Diode Disinfection

This invention describes a device that kills germs on surfaces using light. It works by starting with a blue light source, then covering it with a special layer. This layer is designed to convert only specific parts of the blue light into other colors, creating a unique combination of light wavelengths that work together to disinfect.

Why it matters: Filed in 2024, ongoing advancements in light-converting materials and their precise application have improved the efficiency of tailoring specific light spectra. This makes achieving the claimed multi-wavelength disinfection more effective or cost-efficient now.

Status: Not in forceListed as no longer active. The specific reason is not in the record we hold.
How hard to build: SpecializedCustom light-converting materials, optical engineering
