These contain multiple gasses and produce UV output at precise spectral lines for scientific purposes. Argon and deuterium arc bulbs serve as stable sources. Some lamps, such as magnesium fluoride ...

The key difference between UV and LED nail lamps is the type of lightbulb used. LEDs are usually more energy efficient and emit weaker rays than UV light bulbs. Here’s what that means for your ...

Ultraviolet bandpass filters are designed to isolate UVA, UVB, and UBC spectral regions. This type of filter is used with UV spectral lamps to simulate specific ultraviolet regions, while blocking ...

It’s much more durable than standard air-dry polishes, but it requires UV light to cure. [Becky] bought a lamp to use at home, but it’s very bulky and must be plugged into the wall.

Curtin and co-workers report that there are a number of genetically different types of melanoma, each of which has differing degrees of susceptibility to UV light. The authors state that their ...
