==Excimer lamps== [[Excimer lamp]]s emit narrow-band UVC and [[vacuum ultraviolet|vacuum-ultraviolet]] radiation at a variety of wavelengths depending on the medium. They are mercury-free and reach full output quicker than a mercury lamp, and generate less heat. Excimer emission at 207 and 222 nm appears to be safer than traditional 254 nm germicidal radiation, due to greatly reduced penetration of these wavelengths in human skin.
