Abstract
Ultraviolet‐C illumination may provide a promising solution for the disinfection technology, and thus the development of novel type of ultraviolet‐C light sources is continuously expected. Herein, a conceptual design of ultraviolet‐C light source based on up‐conversion luminescence of phosphor material is introduced. Accordingly, a composite film is prepared using YBO3:Pr3+ phosphor and a transmissive remote phosphor‐converted light source is built by combing the phosphor film with a 447 nm laser. Spectral measurements show that the phosphor‐converted design emits ultraviolet‐C light peaking at 263 and 274 nm with tunable emission intensities. Moreover, ultraviolet imaging demonstration implies that the present design has a potential to serve as an ultraviolet‐C germicidal light source for surface decontamination.
