The output power was increased to 10 times of diamond LED

Japan's Industrial Technology Research Institute has developed a maximum output power of 0.3mW diamond LED, and in the Nano Tech 2010 (international nanotechnology comprehensive exhibition, February 17th ~ 19) on display. LED is characterized by deep ultraviolet light, can be used to kill e.. Department of electrical and Shintec is said to be jointly developed.

Production Research Institute in March 2009, the Institute of Applied Physics, has released the relevant information on the development of diamond LED. The output power was 30 W. The 0.3mW (300 W), is its 10 times. By improving the output power, but also can be used to confirm the bactericidal effect of Escherichia coli.

"Output power to improve several times, how to achieve the mW level, for the purpose of sterilization is enough" (production research).
