A specifically designed beam homogenizing system allows a very even radiation field that can be factory adjusted to a desired size. One example being a 365nm (nominal) head with a 55mm radiation field, evenness of radiation <20%, precisely adjustable radiation strength 2 ... 30mW/cm². The AC operated system is cooled and has been designed for long term radiation sessions up to several hours.

Radiation Head with mounted homogenizing optics:
Homogenizing optics, beam exit aperture showing UV coated fused silica optics:
System in stable operation for some 10.000sec (3h) at full power:
The system is useful for different applications, such as very even UV radiation for photocatalytic processes, to stimulate visible fluorescence, for reflected UV photography, forensic, dermatological and detal examinations and photographic recording, curing of UV glue / bonding, as well as leakage detection etc.
Stay tuned, more will follow on that fascinating subject...
