Application of Ultraviolet Light-Emitting Diodes to the Removal of Cefixime Trihydrate from Aqueous Solution in the Presence of Peroxydisulfate

The present research involves effectual parameters on Cefixime trihydrate removal from aqueous solutions. Antibiotics are the main contributions in pharmaceutical waste; their presence causes major concern. The extensive utilization of antibiotics in aquaculture and prescriptions has led to the cultivation of various antibiotic-resistant bacteria and genes in wastewater. The UV-LED/S2O82- pr...

Degradation of AlGaN-based ultraviolet light emitting diodes

Aging the LEDs by driving at high current, results in the decrease of optical power proportional to the reciprocal square route of stress time. With aging time, change in the current–voltage characteristics indicates decrease of the current at low voltage below the light emission threshold, decrease of the forward voltage drop at high currents and usually no change in the series resistance. No ...

Polarization of III-nitride blue and ultraviolet light-emitting diodes

Polarization-resolved electroluminescence studies of III-nitride blue and ultraviolet sUVd light-emitting diodes sLEDsd were performed. The LEDs were fabricated on nitride materials grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition on sapphire substrates s0001d. Transverse electric sTEd polarization dominates in the InGaN/GaN quantum-well sQWd blue LEDs sl8=458 nmd, whereas transverse magnetic sT...

AlGaN-based ultraviolet light-emitting diodes grown on AlN epilayers

AlGaN-based deep-ultraviolet light-emitting diode (LED) structures, which radiate light at 305 and 290 nm, have been grown on sapphire substrates using an AlN epilayer template. The fabricated devices have a circular geometry to enhance current spreading and light extraction. Circular UV LEDs of different sizes have been characterized. It was found that smaller disk LEDs had higher saturation o...
