NuSil’s EPM-2495 is a white, dispensable elastomer that cures in place. It is designed to adhere to integrated circuit substrates, base plates, heat sinks, or areas where grooves or other configurations require a no- to limited-flow material. EPM-2495 provides heat transfer between electrical/electronic components and their heat sinks while remaining electrically insulating. EPM-2495 uses a platinum cure system that releases no byproducts and boasts low contamination, low ionic content, and low volatility.

“Offering low outgassing characteristics under extreme operating conditions, EPM-2495 helps avoid contamination in sensitive devices,” said Brian Nash, vice president of sales and marketing.“ It is able to achieve low thermal resistance because of its specialized particle size, despite a relatively low bulk thermal conductivity value of 0.64 W/mK.”

Sunlight, UVB and Vitamin D – Human Centric Lighting Beyond Melanopic Stimulation

by Ir. Rémy C. Broersma and Dr. Ir. Marcel P. Lucassen, Scientists at Signify Research Eindhoven UVB radiation initiates vital processes in our body, one of which is the production of vitamin D in the skin. It is well known that over-exposure to the sun may bring a risk. Less well known is that the same is true for insufficient sun exposure due to our indoor lifestyle. In Part 1 of this article, we first describe the scientific understanding behind vitamin D. In Part 2 we describe how artificial light can be enriched with a safe, low dose of UVB, to supplement natural vitamin D production in the skin. Not too much, not too little.

Light in the Service of Health – Bringing the Science of Light and Health into Everyday Life through Evidence-based Communication

Light does far more than let us see. In this episode of the LED professional podcast, Manuel Spitschan and Laura Kervezee, co-chairs of the Light for Public Health Initiative, explain how light acts as the master regulator of the body’s internal clock: it synchronises our physiology with the day outside, shapes mood and alertness, and times the release of melatonin, the hormone that governs sleep. The science is settled enough to act on, so the initiative has distilled it into 26 consensus statements on how light affects the body and well-being, written as practical, evidence-based guidance for individuals, employers, schools and cities. A compact 14-minute briefing on why good light is a public-health question, and what to do about it. Based on the authors’ article in LED professional Review #112.

deLIGHTed Talks #8: Good Light – Good Sleep

Full recording of deLIGHTed Talks #8, held online by LpS DIGITAL on 24 April 2025 (91 minutes). Dr. Renske Lok (Stanford University) shows that bright light during the day deepens nighttime sleep, reduces nighttime awakenings, improves sleep efficiency and lowers next-day sleep inertia. Dr. Jeffrey Hubbard (University of Lausanne / EPFL) compares how light and darkness drive sleep and wakefulness in nocturnal mice and day-active Sudanian grass rats. Chronobiologist Dr. Virginie Gabel, founder of Clock&Me, moderates the session and the discussion on what the findings mean for lighting design.
