UV lamp
Invisible light source
A UV lamp emits ultraviolet light—radiation just beyond the visible spectrum.
These lamps have diverse applications: curing adhesives and nail polish, sterilizing surfaces and water, detecting counterfeit currency, and treating skin conditions.
Tanning beds use UV lamps to darken skin.
