What is the Semiconductor Light Matrix (SLM) Technology?
SLM is a unique technology for producing UV light. Forty years ago, mercury-based arc lamps were the only UV light source available to initiate the UV curing process. New bulb-based light sources such as Excimer bulbs, microwave sources have been introduced, but the basic technology remains the same. Phoseon Technology has developed a “bulbless” Semiconductor Light Matrix (SLM) technology to produce UV light for curing applications. The future of high intensity UV technology is small, cool and clean, with no bulb replacement required. Phoseon’s Semiconductor Light Matrix (SLM) technology combines a dense array of light emitting semiconductor devices, with micro optics and advanced thermal technology in a cost-effective MOEMS (micro opto electro-mechanical system) package. The result is a high intensity UV light system that offers an efficient, scalable, safe, long-life, and environmentally friendly alternative to traditional UV sources.
