Ultraviolet is that part of electromagnetic radiation bounded by the lower wavelength extreme of the visible spectrum and the upper end of the X-ray radiation band. The spectral range of ultraviolet radiation is, by definition, between 100 and 400 nm and is invisible to human eyes. The UV spectrum is subdivided into three bands: UV-A (long-wave) from 315 to 400 nm, UV-B (mediumwave) from 280 to 315 nm, UV-C (short-wave) from 100 to 280 nm. A strong germicidal effect is provided by the radiation in the short-wave UV-C band.
