Japan's Asahi Glass Co., Ltd. (AGC) has developed a quartz lens for deep ultraviolet LEDs. It is understood that with this product, the manufacturing process of deep ultraviolet LED can be greatly simplified, and capital investment can be reduced. The prototype will be produced in the third quarter of 2018 and mass production will be scheduled for 2019.
At present, the disinfection of water and air is mainly the use of mercury lamps. However, due to the adverse effects of mercury on the human body and the environment, the production of mercury lamps in the future will be greatly restricted under the United Nations Minamata Convention. Deep-UV LEDs have little impact on the environment and are highly sterilized, and are expected to be the next-generation light source to replace mercury lamps.
However, current deep ultraviolet LEDs have some problems.
One is a transparent adhesive that bonds the lens and window material together, is expensive, and is easily degraded by UV light. Another problem is the connection of the soldering parts of the package and the window. The customer must have a large deoxidizing device when sealing, and the UV LED product is at risk of cracking and leaking, because the current solder is too hard, so that the package and the window are The thermal stress caused by the difference in coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) directly affects the joint between the package and the window.

In order to solve these problems, AGC Asahi Glass has developed a quartz lens for deep-UV LEDs that integrates quartz window material and lens without the need for transparent glue. In addition, the “special welding†developed by AGC allows customers to simply heat and pressurize in the atmosphere without the need for large-scale deoxidation equipment.
In addition, due to the difference in thermal expansion coefficient between the package and the window, the "special solder" is soft and relieves thermal stress and therefore does not break or leak. Through these means, the deep UV LED manufacturing process can be greatly simplified, and capital investment can be reduced.

A Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) connector, also pounced as [scuzzy" connector, is used for physically connecting and transferring data between computers and peripheral devices.
SCSI is the small computer system interface, which is an independent processor standard used for the system level interface between computer and intelligent devices (hard disk, floppy, optical drive, printer, scanner, etc.). It is an intelligent universal interface standard, which has the function of communicating with various types of peripherals. SCSI uses the standard software interface of ASPI (SCSI programming interface) to make the driver communicate with the SCSI adapter installed inside the computer. SCSI interface is widely used in high-speed data transmission technology on minicomputers. SCSI interface has many advantages, such as wide application range, multitask, wide bandwidth, low CPU utilization, and hot plug.
SCSI connectors type and interfaces
Centronics 50-pin connector: The Centronics 50-pin connector was once the most widely used SCSI connector. An external connector only, the Centronics is a SCSI-1 connector that looks the same as the Centronics cable that attaches to a parallel port printer. The Centronics 50-pin cable comes in male and female styles, and gender changers and cable converters are commonly available. Although used on older SCSI devices and external drive enclosures, this interface is no longer heavily used, due to its slow speed and short cable lengths.
High-density 50-pin connector: The high-density 50-pin connector is used on scanners and Jaz drives. It is one of the more common SCSI connectors and is usually used to connect SCSI-2 devices. Both ends of the cable are usually 50-pin male, while the sockets on the host adapter and external devices are 50-pin female.
DB 25-pin connector: The DB 25-pin or D Sub 25 is by far the most widely used connector. This connector is used for parallel and serial printers in addition to the many other devices available. Both ends of the cable are usually 25-pin male, while the sockets on the host adapter and external devices are 25-pin female. This cable is almost always an external connector.
Note: DB-25 SCSI CABLES are not compatible with and should not be used as serial or printer cables; serial cables and printer cables should not be used or attached to DB-25 SCSI adapters. You can short out the SCSI host adapter or the motherboard by using the wrong cable. Marking cables is the best way to avoid this.
IDC50 connector: The IDC50 is the most common internal SCSI connector. It is very similar to the standard IDE internal ribbon cable. The IDC50 SCSI cable is considerably wider then an IDE ribbon cable; in fact, it is usually the widest standard internal cable in use. This is a standard SCSI-2 10MBps internal SCSI cable. Many low-end cables have only two or three connectors, allowing for one or two devices to be attached to the cable. Seven-device cables are available, though they are often expensive and require a large case, as the cables may be four or five feet long.
High-density 68-pin connector: The high-density 68-pin connector is the SCSI connector of choice for SCSI-3 host adapters and peripherals. There is an internal ribbon cable version that looks very similar to the IDC50 connector. Many low-end cables have only two or three connectors, allowing for one or two devices to be attached to the cable. Seven-device cables are available, though they are often very expensive and require a large case, as the cables may be three or more feet long. Both ends of the external cable are usually 68-pin male, while the sockets on the host adapter and external devices are 68-pin female.
SCA 80-pin Micro-Centronics connector: SCA stands for Single Connector Attachment, a type of disk drive connector that includes connection pins for the power cables as well as the data wires. A SCA connector uses an 80-pin plug and socket to connect peripherals. This connector combines power, data channel, and ID configuration for fast installation and removal. SCA connectors are typically found only on high-end SCSI hard disks. The SCA interface was designed to provide a standard connection for systems using drives that can be hot-swapped. SCA makes swapping SCSI hard drives much easier than with traditional SCSI cables, plugs, and sockets. An adapter enables SCA drives to fit into standard SCSI enclosures.
SCSI SFF 8482: Also called "4x internal" by some vendors. This is a connector with the same form factor as SATA with the addition of a "bump" to key it specifically for SAS. (SATA drives can be plugged into SAS controllers, but SAS drives will not function with a SATA controller; hence, the necessity for the key bump on the connector.) As the name says, it's meant to be used internally, i.e., inside the computer case.
SCSI SFF 8484: Also called "32-pin" or "MultiLane". This is a high density connector usually intended to plug into the motherboard, controller, or backplane itself. Cables with this connector on one end usually have four individual SFF 8482 connectors on the other.
Serial Attached SCSI SFF 8470: Also called "4x external" by some vendors. This is simply a version of the SFF 8484 that's meant to be used with external (i.e., not located within the case) drives.
