The most important aspect of infrared light sources for near-infrared spectroscopy is to cover as broad a wavelength range of emitted light as possible. The larger this range, the more objects that can be analyzed. In order to determine ingredients or water content, the target object is illuminated with infrared light of a wide wavelength […]

Will LEDs go purple?
Examine an LED bulb and you are likely to find the LEDs on board are phosphor-converted white LEDs (PC-LEDs). These are created either from blue- or near-ultraviolet-emitting chips emitting light at about 450 nm that are coated with a yellow phosphor. The phosphor down-converts the light output into lower visible light frequencies. PC-LEDs that operate […]
Don’t get burned about LED UV
Another myth busted: You needn’t worry about ultraviolet light coming from ordinary LED bulbs. We recently checked a batch of LED bulbs for the amount of blue light they gave off. This effort came in response to claims from some in the alternative medicine crowd that LED bulbs gave off inordinate amounts of unhealthy blue […]
