UV light is the same as any other kind of light or radiation along the spectrum from radioactive waves to radio waves. The difference between them is their wavelength and fequency. The longer the wavelength, the less the frequency. UV light is high-frequency short-wavelength light, just a bit more high-frequency than the highest-frequency visible light, which is violet.

How does light work? Well, even physicists aren't quite sure.

How do you make the ultraviolet light?

Ultraviolet light is typically generated using ultraviolet lamps or LEDs that emit light in the ultraviolet spectrum. These devices use electrical energy to excite atoms, resulting in the emission of ultraviolet light. UV light can also be generated by natural sources like the sun.
