Abstract：Ultraviolet light is a kind of high-energy invisible light,which is often used as part of sunlight and is known to burn human skin under the hot sun in summer.Therefore,most people always try to protect themselves against ultraviolet rays in natural sunlight in their daily lives.However,things always have two sides,and so does ultraviolet light.Due to the high-energy characteristics of ultraviolet rays,they can efficiently destroy microbial activity at an appropriate dose,and are widely used in disinfection and sterilization.During the epidemic period,its industrialization promotion was particularly rapid.In addition,the modification of material molecules by high-energy ultraviolet rays has also derived many applications.This article will focus on the application of different wavelengths of ultraviolet light in medical treatment,disinfection,and industry.
