Objects that emit UV light include the sun, black lights, and certain types of artificial light sources such as UV lamps and LEDs. UV light is a type of electromagnetic radiation that is not visible to the human eye but can cause fluorescence in certain materials.

Which part of the Sun emits UV light?

The Sun's outer layer, called the chromosphere, emits ultraviolet (UV) light. This region is located above the visible surface of the Sun, known as the photosphere, and is responsible for producing the majority of the Sun's UV radiation.


What material lines the tubes of fluorescent lights and glows to UV Light?

Phosphor coating lines the inside of fluorescent light tubes. When the gas inside the tube is excited by electrical current, it emits ultraviolet (UV) light. The phosphor coating then absorbs the UV light and re-emits it as visible light, creating the glow from the fluorescent light.

Where to get uv light bulbs?

UV lamp, also called Black-light Lamp, device for producing electromagnetic radiations in the wavelengths between those of visible light and X-rays. The Sun's rays are rich in such radiation, sometimes referred to as black light because it is not visible to the unaided eye.

What are fluorescent materials illuminated with?

Fluorescent materials are typically illuminated with ultraviolet (UV) light. When UV light is absorbed by the fluorescent material, it re-emits visible light at a longer wavelength, creating the characteristic fluorescence.


Can you grow marijuna with a black light?

Yes, if the black light only emits UV-A, and meets the requirement of intensity required by the plant. UV-B will damage the plant's DNA, and UV-C will make ozone also damaging the plant.


How do Plant light bulbs work?

The fluorescent type of light bulbs (correctly called lamps) have a phosphor that besides emitting visible light (400 to 750 nm) also emits some UV enengy in the UV-A range. Plants need visible light and some UV-A to be effective.


What is the difference between a black light and a regular light bulb?

A black light emits ultraviolet (UV) light, which is not visible to the human eye but can cause certain materials to fluoresce. A regular light bulb emits visible light that illuminates the surrounding area.
