Hi
An incandescent light bulb; if its filament does not emit ultraviolet radiation, light passes trough its internal vacuum and then trough the glass that can contain tint, minerals, something in it. Can the resulting light be somehow ultraviolet, or contain some ultraviolet light by just passing trough a 'doped' glass ?
In other words, can light change its λ to ultraviolet by passing trough some tailored material ? Would that be similar to diode pumped solid state laser ?
