Application field of UV light sources is getting larger at the last decades. Among the most widespread are high and medium pressure vacuum lamps. But there currently is a trend of moving away from using mercury both in household applications and manufacturing. This creates a necessity to conduct research and development for UV sources made and operating without Hg. Cathodoluminescent UV sources are in this category. One of the possible ways to create a viable UV anode phosphor is using quantum dots with needed spectral characteristics.
