| Abstract | Due to concerns of increasing electrical energy demand and government regulations, traditional incandescent lamps are being replaced by energy-efficient lamps, such as compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs) and light emitting diodes (LEDs). The widespread adoption of new solid-state light sources requires investigation into several effects associated with these alternative light sources. One of the important concerns is ultraviolet (UV) radiations coming out of these new light sources. This brief report presents the experimental data obtained on UV radiations from CFLs and LEDs. 1 2016 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group. |
