  2. UV-B lamps - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UV-B_lamps

    UV-B lamps are lamps that emit a spectrum of ultraviolet light with wavelengths ranging from 290–320 nanometers. This spectrum is also commonly called the biological spectrum due to the human body's sensitivity to light of such a wavelength. [1] UV-B light does not tan the skin very much, compared to the UV-A lamps that are used in tanning beds.

  3. Tanning lamp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tanning_lamp

    Most people could be led to believe that a 6.5% lamp is stronger than a 5% lamp, while both lamps might have the same total UV output (or the 5% could even be stronger across the spectrum). As such, UVA vs UVB rating on lamps only tells you the relative amount of UV, making a 5% lamp really a lamp whose UV spectrum is 5% UVB and 95% UVA. [ 5 ]

  4. Deuterium arc lamp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deuterium_arc_lamp

    A deuterium lamp uses a tungsten filament and anode placed on opposite sides of a nickel box structure designed to produce the best output spectrum. Unlike an incandescent bulb, the filament is not the source of light in deuterium lamps. Instead an arc is created from the filament to the anode, a similar process to arc lamps. Because the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Channel_5_(web_series)

    Channel 5 (also known as "Channel 5 with Andrew Callaghan" on YouTube) is an American digital media company and web channel, billed as a "digital journalism experience." [ 2 ] The show is a spinoff of the group's previous project, All Gas No Brakes , which was itself based on the book of the same name.

  6. List of vacuum tubes - Wikipedia

    Some specify which end of the filament is to be powered by the positive side of the filament power supply (usually a battery). All have glass bodies that measure from 0.285 to 0.400 inches (7.2 to 10.2 millimetres) wide, and from 1.25 to 2.00 inches (32 to 51 millimetres) in overall length.

  7. Blacklight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blacklight

    One of the innovations for night and all-weather flying used by the US, UK, Japan and Germany during World War II was the use of UV interior lighting to illuminate the instrument panel, giving a safer alternative to the radium-painted instrument faces and pointers, and an intensity that could be varied easily and without visible illumination ...

  8. LED filament - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LED_filament

    A 230-volt LED filament light bulb, with a B22 base. The filaments are visible as the four yellow vertical lines. A LED filament light bulb is a LED lamp which is designed to resemble a traditional incandescent light bulb with visible filaments for aesthetic and light distribution purposes, but with the high efficiency of light-emitting diodes (LEDs).

  9. Ultraviolet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultraviolet

    UV sources for UV curing applications include UV lamps, UV LEDs, and excimer flash lamps. Fast processes such as flexo or offset printing require high-intensity light focused via reflectors onto a moving substrate and medium so high-pressure Hg (mercury) or Fe (iron, doped)-based bulbs are used, energized with electric arcs or microwaves.
