Method for the effective delivery of photonic energy to cultures in a fluid medium

A device, comprising:

• a culture medium;
• a container configured to house the culture medium;
• a photonic device structured to provide photonic energy, the photonic device is at least one from among a photoreceptor, a photoemitter, or a combination of the photoreceptor and the photoemitter;
• and
• a generator including said photonic device, the generator configured to generate one or more liquid replenishing lenses and to deliver the one or more liquid replenishing lenses between the culture medium and the photonic device, the one or more liquid replenishing lenses configured to transmit photonic energy between the photonic device and the culture medium, the generator including an assembly configured to generate a liquid energy transfer medium and delivers the liquid energy transfer medium between the culture medium and the photonic device to separate the photonic device from the culture medium and to convey photonic energy between the photonic device and the culture medium, the assembly including a housing arranged in the container, the housing having an interface member that includes one or more apertures sized and shaped to form the one or more liquid replenishing lenses in response to the liquid energy transfer medium passing through the one or more apertures, the one or more liquid replenishing lenses structured to reflect and refract photonic energy at the time the one or more liquid replenishing lenses are in the one or more apertures and as the photonic energy travels through the one or more liquid replenishing lenses from the photonic device and into the culture medium, and wherein the assembly further includes a pump coupled to the housing and configured to continuously expose the photonic device to the liquid energy transfer medium.
