Abstract: A UV emitting device having at least one first phosphor that absorbs UV radiation of a wavelength shorter than 200 nm and at least one second phosphor which absorbs UV radiation of a wavelength between 220 nm and 245 nm. The at least one first phosphor emits UV radiation of a wavelength between 220 nm and 245 nm and the at least one second phosphor emits UV radiation of a wavelength between 250 nm and 315 nm. The at least one first phosphor and the at least one second phosphor are disposed in the form of layers, wherein the at least one first phosphor layer is positioned between a discharge volume and the at least one second phosphor layer.

Abstract: An ozone generator with a high voltage electrode and at least one counter electrode which limit a gap in which at least one dielectric is arranged and which is flowed through by a gas flow in the direction of flow. The high voltage electrode and the at least one counter electrode are provided with a connection for an electrical power supply to generate silent discharges. A fabric is arranged in the gas flow. The fabric includes a material combination including at least one wire and at least one electrically non-conductive fiber.
