Abstract
In this paper, far UV-C microplasma lamp with a flat form factor will be introduced for its performance to prevent airborne transmission of the virus by continuous viral density reduction in an indoor space. Unlike conventional UVC germicidal lights, which is harmful if it strikes the human body, far UVC (222 nm) photons from KrCl* excimer has recently been demonstrated to be harmless to human skin or eyes during direct exposure at occupied spaces. Details concerning the lamp characteristics, effectiveness and safety studies, current applications, and prospects of the future use of the Far-UVC lamps will be discussed.
