Zusammenfassung: | A UV light medium can be enhanced to provide specific optical properties that assist in distributing UV light from a UV source to achieve a defined UV light pattern and effective UV disinfection. The properties of the UV light medium can be selected and enhanced by loading the medium with additives, applying a UV blocking pattern, varying the UV light medium material type, thickness, shape, layering, or surface texture. The medium can be any material subject to UV light during a UV treatment or disinfection process. The UV light medium can create a generally uniform UV light pattern that reduces UV hot spots. The UV light medium can diffuse UV light at a target area to enables more robust disinfection with the same or lower UV source intensity. |
