Ultraviolet Light
Linked via "UVC germicidal irradiation"
UV radiation finds numerous practical applications where its high energy or unique spectral signature is leveraged:
Sterilization: UVC germicidal irradiation (UVGI) targets microbial DNA, exploiting the high efficiency of $254 \text{ nm}$ photons to disrupt replication mechanisms.
Forensics and Material Science: Certain compounds exhibit fluorescence when excited by specific UV wavelengths, a phenomenon exploited in [material analysis](/entries/material-analy…
