Ultraviolet light (UV light) is light of shorter wavelength than the visible spectrum. Many insects, like bees, see mostly UV light so they can find plants with nectar. Sunlight contains UV light and can tan but also damage your skin if you stay outside too long on a sunny day.
Answer:Visible light is electromagnet radiation of different frequencies. The different frequencies are the different colors. Just outside the range of frequencies (colors) humans can see are infrared and ultraviolet. Ultraviolet is higher frequency and infrared is lower.
Note: Higher frequencies are shorter wavelengths and lower frequencies are longer wavelengths.

Why is xenon used in ultraviolet lights?
Xenon gas is used in ultraviolet lights as a filler gas because it helps the lamp reach higher operating temperatures quickly, which is necessary for the efficient production of ultraviolet radiation. Xenon also improves the stability and performance of the lamp by reducing flickering and extending the lifespan of the bulb.
