Ultraviolet light is a form of electromagnetic radiation that causes sunburns and the glowing effect on black-light posters. However, excessive UV radiation exposure harms living tissue. The sun emits electromagnetic radiation, transmitted as waves or particles with various wavelengths and frequencies. The electromagnetic (EM) spectrum refers to this wide range of wavelengths. Typically, the spectrum is divided into seven regions in ascending order of rising energy, rising frequency, and falling wavelength. Similar names for these radiation types include radio waves, microwaves, infrared (IR), visible light, ultraviolet (UV), X-rays, and gamma rays. In the electromagnetic (EM) spectrum, ultraviolet (UV) light lies between visible light and X-rays. It has wavelengths ranging from 380 nanometers (1.5 105 inches) to around 10 nm (4 107 inches), and its frequencies range from about 8 1014 to 3 1016 cycles per second, or hertz (Hz). UV is often classified into three sub-bands: UVA, or near ...
