Caption
Testing UV light through side-emitting optical fibers (SEOFs): (a) Westerhoff and his team created an experimental setup for growing biofilm on an Inconel plate coupon with irradiation from SEOFs delivering UV-A, -B, or -C from an LED or a control reactor with SEOFs not connected to a UV-LED. (b) Experimental irradiance was measured at different distances away from and along the length of the SEOF. (c) Integrated spatial light irradiance was measured from all three parallel SEOFs in the reactor. Graphic courtesy of Paul Westerhoff/ASU
