ultraviolet (UV) ultraviolet radiation (UVR)
Radiation for which the wavelengths are shorter than those for visible radiation. N
OTE 1 The range between 100 nm and 400 nm is commonly subdivided into: UV-A: 315 nm to 400 nm; UV-B: 280 nm to 315 nm; UV-C: 100 nm to 280 nm.
NOTE 2 A precise border between "ultraviolet" and "visible" cannot be defined, because visual sensation at wavelengths shorter than 400 nm is noted for very bright sources. (CIE S 017/E:2011 ILV)
