Abstract

Seven percent of the electromagnetic radiation emitted from the sun is in the UV range (200–400 nm). As it passes through the atmosphere, the total flux transmitted is greatly reduced, and the composition of the UV radiation is modified. Shortwave UV-C radiation (200–280 nm) is completely
