Ultraviolet laser

An ultraviolet (UV) laser emits light in the ultraviolet spectrum, which is shorter in wavelength than visible light. This means it’s invisible to the human eye. UV lasers are commonly used in various applications, including medical procedures, material processing, and scientific research. They can effectively cut or engrave materials, sterilize surfaces, and are also employed in certain types of imaging and diagnostics. Due to their high energy, UV lasers can be powerful tools, but they also require careful handling to protect against potential harm to skin and eyes.
