Abstract:
A sterilizing device comprises a light guiding member and an ultraviolet (UV) light source. The light guiding member has a surface. The UV light source emits UV light rays such that the UV light rays are guided into the guiding member based on a total internal reflection. When an object contacts or comes close to the surface, an evanescent wave from the UV light rays irradiates on the object.

Claim (Index 31):
The manufacturing method of  claim 24 , further comprising:\n totally reflecting the UV light beam internally inside the light guiding member and keeping the energy of the UV light beam in the light guiding member when the object leave the front surface, wherein the sterilizing device further comprising: a switch is configured to control the status of the UV light source; and a timer is configured to control the switch according to a predetermined time interval.
