Abstract
A glass has a transmittance at a wavelength of 220 nm of at least 30% and a transmittance at a wavelength of 200 nm of less than 4.0%, the glass having a total platinum content of less than 3.5 ppm. A device and a sterilizer include a light source configured to output ultraviolet light and a lamp cover covering the light source and including the glass.
Claims22
A glass having a transmittance at a wavelength of 220 nm of at least 30% and a transmittance at a wavelength of 200 nm of less than 4.0%, the glass having a total platinum content of less than 3.5 ppm.
A device, comprising:
- a light source configured to output ultraviolet (UV) light;
- and
- a lamp cover covering the light source, the lamp cover comprising a glass having a transmittance at a wavelength of 220 nm of at least 30% and a transmittance at a wavelength of 200 nm of less than 4.0%, the glass having a total platinum content of less than 3.5 ppm.
A sterilizer, comprising:
- a light source configured to output ultraviolet (UV) light at a wavelength of 222 nm;
- and
- a lamp cover covering the light source, the lamp cover comprising a glass having a transmittance at a wavelength of 220 nm of at least 30% and a transmittance at a wavelength of 200 nm of less than 4.0%, the glass having a total platinum content of less than 3.5 ppm.
