Marktech launches 235nm and 255nm dual-chip UVC LEDs
Marktech Optoelectronics Inc of Latham, NY, USA, a designer and manufacturer of optoelectronics components and assemblies — including UV, visible, near-infrared (NIR) and short-wave infrared (SWIR) emitters, detectors and indium phosphide (InP) epiwafers — has launched its dual-chip UVC LEDs in 235nm and 255nm wavelengths. Available now, the high-power UVC LEDs are engineered to double the power output of traditional single-chip LEDs, meeting the need for more effective deep-UVC light sources for purification and instrumentation applications across various industries.
By integrating two UVC LEDs within a single package, Marktech has doubled the light output, significantly enhancing the efficiency and range of germicidal and analytical applications. These enhancements are said to be crucial in environments with high turbidity, such as water purification systems and water quality sensors, where increased power is essential to maintain effectiveness. Additionally, the high power output proves vital in improving the performance of air and surface sanitization and sterilization solutions where rapid and effective disinfection is necessary.

Key features and benefits of the new high-power dual-chip UVC LEDs are listed as follows:
- Enhanced power output — superior performance in critical sterilization tasks by doubling the light output compared with single-chip models.
- Broad application range — suitable for use in high-demand environments, including healthcare facilities, public transport systems, and residential applications that require stringent disinfection protocols.
- Efficiency and durability — a reliable, long-lasting solution with lower energy consumption and minimal maintenance compared with conventional UV light sources.
- Safety and eco-friendliness — mercury-free and safer for the environment and end-users with the Silanna Safe 235nm LEDs, resulting in even lower irritation to human skin than 255nm LEDs.
“These new dual-chip UVC LEDs are a game-changer for industries requiring high-intensity disinfection solutions,” says Vince Forte, chief technology officer. “They provide more power, efficiency and increased safety utilizing the 235nm UV range, aligning with our sustainability and health safety commitment.”
