Our platform uses a proprietary photonic integrated circuit that makes far-UVC light disinfection possible using a single semiconductor chip.
Integrated blue semiconductor laser that emits light at 445 nm wavelength.
Enables precision control of the wavelength of light emitted by the blue laser.
The waveguides double the blue laser light frequency based on a process called Second Harmonic Generation (SHG).
Human safe far-UVC light at 222 nm wavelength is output from the chip.
Uviquity’s far-UVC chips integrate seamlessly into standard photonic packages.
Far-UVC is invisible, ultraviolet light with wavelengths between 200-230 nm. Because its wavelength is shorter than traditional ultraviolet light, far-UVC light cannot penetrate the superficial layer of our eyes or the protective outer layer of our skin. Pathogens have no such defenses – making far-UVC light perfect for disinfection everywhere pathogens are.
Solid state design and manufacturing processes drive radical performance improvements – higher efficiency, smaller form factor, longer lifetime and lower cost.
