Flúrljósandi
Flúrljósandi is an Icelandic term that translates to "fluorescent" in English. It describes a property of certain materials that emit visible light when exposed to ultraviolet radiation. This phenomenon, known as fluorescence, occurs when a substance absorbs energy from a higher-energy source, such as UV light, and then re-emits that energy at a lower energy, which our eyes perceive as visible light.
The process involves electrons within the material's atoms. When struck by UV photons, these electrons are excited
Flúrljósandi materials are used in a wide variety of applications. Fluorescent lighting, commonly found in homes
