Abstract

The world‐wide spreading of coronavirus disease (COVID‐19) has greatly shaken human society, thus effective and fast‐speed methods of non‐daily‐life‐disturbance sterilization have become extremely significant. In this work, by fully benefitting from high‐quality AlN template (with threading dislocation density as low as ≈6×108 cm−2) as well as outstanding deep ultraviolet (UVC‐less than 280 nm) light‐emitting diodes (LEDs) structure design and epitaxy optimization, high power UVC LEDs and ultra‐high‐power sterilization irradiation source are achieved. Moreover, for the first time, a result in which a fast and complete elimination of SARS‐CoV‐2 (the virus causes COVID‐19) within only 1 s is achieved by the nearly whole industry‐chain‐covered product. These results advance the promising potential in UVC‐LED disinfection particularly in the shadow of COVID‐19.
