UV LED Flashlights & Torches

Handheld UV torches (or flashlights) are an invaluable tool for fluorescent rock & mineral collecting; forensics; biological research; fossil and artifact verification; nondestructive testing; detecting leaks and pet stains; hunting scorpions; checking currency, stamps, passports; and many other applications requiring a source of ultraviolet radiation.

UV LEDs emit some visible light which interferes with observing the fluorescent response of a material. It is important to filter out as much of the visible light as reasonably achievable while allowing a high percentage of the UV to pass through the filter. There are two general categories of filters that are used for this purpose – dichroic and colored glass. Dichroic filters reflect the visible light while allowing a high percentage of the UV to pass through. Think of it as a window screen that stops the insects while letting the breeze through. Colored glass filters absorb the visible light while allowing a high percentage of the UV to pass through.
