DATA SHEET:
High Performance UVC LEDs for Instrumentation
Optan UVC LEDs from Crystal IS offer industry leading light output, reliability, and spectral
quality in a TO-39 package. Available in peak wavelengths from 250 nm-280 nm and light output
bins from 0.5 mW-4 mW, these LEDs provide tremendous value for spectroscopic applications
in analytical and life sciences instrumentation.
Optan’s high light output provides unparalleled detection sensitivity while the excellent
spectral quality provides measurement linearity over a wider range. Optan offers best-in-
class reliability and lifetime for uninterrupted, continuous operation.
We achieve superior efficiency and reliability through proprietary technology by using low
defect aluminum nitride (AlN) substrates, and by epitaxial growth of crystal layers which
preserve the low defect densities of the substrate. The resulting product has a higher
light output and longer lifetime in the UVC spectrum than other commercially available LEDs.
Product designers can use the information in this document, in conjunction with the
Crystal IS thermal management note HS01, to start designing applications to meet your
unique specifications.
