Devices and methods for curing materials with radiant energy are described. The devices include a first reflector and a second reflector that are semi-ellipses. The ellipses that define the first reflector and the second reflector have axes of different lengths, and the reflectors are aligned such that the focal points of the reflectors are overlaid. A radiative energy source at a near focal point of a reflector can provide energy to cure a coating on a substrate at a far focal point of the reflector. The different sizes of the two reflectors decrease focusing error of the radiative energy and provide improved efficiency to the curing system.

An RF screen for microwave powered UV lamp systems is provided. The RF screen is formed of a single sheet of conductive material in which a mesh pattern has been formed. The screen includes a non-traditional mesh pattern including individual openings with 3 or more nodes. The RF screen is generally configured to optimize the balance between light transmission and RF energy leakage desired for the particular application. Generally, it is desired that the RF screen has an open area percentage greater than about 80% while limiting RF energy leakage from the microwave powered lamp system to acceptable levels.
