Ultraviolet (UV) light-emitting diodes (LEDs) are solid-state devices that produce light when an electrical current flows from the positive side to the negative side of the circuit. These diodes are environment friendly as they consume less energy and do not contain harmful mercury and produce ozone. They are widely used in industrial curing of printing, coatings, and adhesives and for biological inactivation, molecular detection, and advanced imaging. At present, improvements in their flux density, stability, and life hours have made UV LEDs a viable solution for replacing conventional UV light sources, such as mercury arc lamps, grid lamps, and hot and cold cathode lamps. UV LED Market Trends:
With the growing prevalence of coronavirus disease (COVID-19), there is a significant rise in the need for novel disinfection technologies for the surface inactivation of the virus. This represents one of the key factors driving the demand for UV LEDs across the globe. Moreover, technological advances in the manufacturing of solid-state UV devices and the escalating demand for environment-friendly methods of producing optoelectronics are contributing to the market growth. Apart from this, the rising adoption of LED technology for UV curing commercial and industrial materials, such as inks, is positively influencing the use of UV LEDs due to their increased efficiency and low cost of ownership. Furthermore, the emerging trend of miniaturization in consumer electronics is propelling the utilization of UV LEDs around the world. Besides this, the expanding application of UV LEDs, such as deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) analysis and germicidal for air, surface, and water purification, is anticipated to create lucrative growth opportunities for manufacturers and drive the market in the coming years.
