THE SUNLIGHT SPECTRUM
Sunlight spectrum that reaches earth consist of Ultraviolet (UV) 10nm to 400nm, Visible Light (VLT) 380nm to 780nm and Infrared 780nm to 2500 mm (IR). UV is the strongest and most harmful radiation to earth. UVC is the strongest and harmful radiation to earth. UVC is fully block by the ozone layer, 5% of UVB and 100% of UVA reach earth. UVB has a shorter wavelength which can only reach the earth surface. UVA has the longest wavelength which can penetrate to the deep-sea level.
Visible Light is the light that we can see. VL generated almost 40% of the heat from Light Spectrum. It consists the Colours of the rainbow. Violet, Indigo and Blue light from 380nm to 420nm wavelength is the High Energy Visible Light that is harmful to human eyes.
Near Infrared 780nm to 2500nm is generates almost 50% of the heat coming from the light spectrum. Near Infrared is basically good for wound healing, cellular regeneration, antioxidant and support metabolic processes. Lots of medical instruments use near infrared light for treatment. For example, sauna and near infrared therapy.
