Patent attributes
Methods, systems, and apparatuses involving disinfecting light subcomponents are provided. An example system comprises a substrate with one or more light emitters disposed on the substrate. The one or more light emitters may be configured to inactivate microorganisms on a surface by emitting light. The light may comprise a proportion of spectral energy of the light, measured in a 380 nanometers (nm) to 420 nm wavelength range, greater than 50%. The light may comprise a full width half max (FWHM) emission spectrum of less than 20 nm and centered at a wavelength of approximately 405 nm to concentrate a spectral energy of the light and minimize energy associated with wavelengths that bleed into an ultraviolet wavelength range. The light may comprise an irradiance at the surface sufficient to initiate inactivation of microorganisms on the surface.
