Does a real diamond turn purple under an ultra light?
If the diamond has natural fluorescence -- about 60% of diamonds do -- then, yes, it will glow under black light.
What color of light has photons of greatest energy?
The visible light spectrum ranges from red light (620 nm) to violet light (480nm). Because wavelength is inversely proportional to energy, violet light posseses the most energy while red light possesses the least (as measured in photons).
How do you get things to glow under a black light?
Black light is only black because very little of the light the lamp produces is in the visible spectrum. Most is actually ultraviolet (UV) light. The frequency of such light is just a little higher than violet (hence the name ultraviolet). The human eye cannot detect UV light, so black light is mostly invisible to us (you might see a faint violet glow however). UV light can cause certain materials to glow due to an effect called Fluorescence. This entails a material absorbing light at a certain frequency (e.g. UV light) and retransmitting it at another frequency, for example visible light. We cannot see UV light but we can see the retransmitted visible light causing the object to glow. Black light theaters make good use of such materials, but in many countries the paper money also contains fluorescent materials. That is why people working behind the counter in shops will sometimes hold money under a UV lamp; counterfeited money might not have such security features and will thus reveal itself for the fake it is.
Why does a poster glow under black light?
A poster glows under black light if there is white designs on it. Anything white glows under black light. The reason why is because those things have phosphors on them which can only be detected under black light.
What color light is absorbed by an object that appears red under white light?
Red Light
What color is semen under a black light?

Minerals that glow under ultra violet light?
fluorescence is on of them and the only one that i know of
What are some fluorescent minerals?
If you put them under ultra-violet light it changes color and glows.
What nonsilicate mineral glows under ultraviolet light?
3 minerals that glow under ultra violet light
What is ultra voilet used for?
I assume you mean "ultra violet light." It can be used for many things, including just for funn at nightclubs and varius parties (ultra violet makes white things glow under them) or they are sometimes used on crime scenes to see if blood has been wiped of a surface.
Would you see scorpions at the desert?
Scorpions that inhabit deserts are often nocturnal. So no. Unless you have a UV light, their exoskeletons become iridescent under ultra violet light.
How does a violet wand work?
You may be referring to an ultra violet light, hand held, which causes certain substances to fluoresce under the UV light. Body oils, semen, blood, fingerprints, security marks on stamps and banknotes are all applications for this simple technique.
Is working under ultraviolet bad for you?
Excessive exposure to ultra violet light can lead to sun burn, skin cancer, and depending on the wave length of the light, cataracts. These conditions are not generally considered to be good for you.
Do diamonds turn blue under ultra violet lights?
The phenomenon you describe is florescence. You can read more about it, below.
Does fluorescent material glow under infrared light?
No fluorescent material glows under ultraviolet not infrared
Where is the brake light fuse on a Harley Ultra Glide?
under the left pop off side cover. my brake light fuse blew out because the main harness wire orange/violet shorted out under the front fairing on a sharp piece of metal the fairing comes off easily
What are the categories of the electromagnetic spectrum?
