Dr. Brenner and his team hypothesized that a very narrow spectrum of UV light—around 207 nm—might be capable of destroying bacteria while leaving human tissue unaffected.

This includes the ultraviolet (UV) band around 300 nm, especially if short pulse durations and/or high intensities are needed.

But researchers from Columbia University Medical Center have found that a narrow spectrum of UV light — at 207 nm — can kill bacteria like methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) while leaving ...

Scientists have known for decades that broad-spectrum UVC light, which has a wavelength of between 200 to 400 nanometers (nm), is highly effective at killing bacteria and viruses by destroying the ...

The TM series mini-spectrometers from Hamamatsu are polychromators that feature an image sensor, a driver circuit, and optical elements. Through an optical fiber, light is directed into the entry port ...
