LED measurement in Beauty Industry

Nguyễn Khánh Linh - 09/05/2023

Brightness measurement is the process of quantifying the amount of light reflected or emitted by a surface, and is typically used to evaluate the visual perception of a surface's whiteness or color. Brightness can be measured using a variety of methods, including photometric or spectrophotometric techniques.

  • Photometric techniques measure the amount of light reflected by a surface using a luminance meter or similar device. The brightness value obtained through photometric measurement is typically expressed in units of luminance, such as candela per square meter (cd/m²).
  • Spectrophotometric techniques measure the reflectance or transmittance of light across a range of wavelengths, and can provide a more detailed characterization of a surface's spectral response. The resulting spectral data can be used to calculate various brightness indices, such as whiteness or yellowness indexes.

In this article, we will discuss the application of spectrophometric technique by using spectrometers of Ocean Optics ( Ocean Insight)

 

Applications:

Brightness measurement is an important tool for monitoring the performance of LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes). LEDs are widely used in various applications such as displays, lighting, and automotive applications, and it is critical to maintain their brightness and color consistency over time.

Brightness measurement can be used to assess the luminous flux or radiant flux output of LEDs, as well as their color temperature and color rendering index (CRI). These parameters are important for ensuring that the LED light output meets the desired specifications for a particular application. Morover, the brightness measurement can also be used to assess the uniformity of light output across an array of LEDs. This can be important in applications such as display backlights or automotive lighting, where consistent brightness and color are critical for optimal performance.

In beauty industries, LED mask is more and more popular when this machine can help beauty lovers can treat their skins with sepearated functions by different wavelengths of LED.

 

ColorWavelength Interval In nanometersTreats Skin Conditions
Infrared light (invisible to the eye)~ 700 – 1,000 nmPenetrate deeper into the skin for amplified results
Deep Red with Infrared light~ 650 – 1,000 nmWrinkles, volume loss, wounds, cystic acne 
Red~ 700 – 635 nmSkin repair, hydration, sunken skin, Sun damage, Rosacea
Orange~ 635 – 590 nmRosacea and skin redness
Yellow~ 590 – 560 nmRedness, inflammation, sun daamage, visible veins, scaring
Green~ 560 – 520 nmUneven skin tone, brown spots, freckles
Cyan~ 520 – 490 nmSwollen capillaries
Blue~ 490 – 450 nmAcne, eczema, psoriasis
Violet~ 450 – 400 nmIncrease cell regenerati
 

One of the potential options using to test the performance of LED by Ocean Insight spectrometer is  Ocean-FX-VIS-NIR spectrometer (350-1000 nm), a FOIS-1 integrating sphere, Custom optical fiber with the HL-3P-INT-CAL radiometrically calibrated light source as the reference. Using the processed mode in OceanView, we corrected the spectral data for the instrument response function of the Ocean FX spectrometer, with intensity reported as power in microwatts per nanometer (uW/nm). By using this spectrometer, it is easier and more time-saving when they can choose the suitable wavelength for the specific purpose.
