Abstract

Ultraviolet radiation is directed within a storage area at target wavelengths, target intensities, a target temporal distribution, and/or a target spatial distribution. A set of ultraviolet radiation sources generate ultraviolet radiation directed at a set of items located within the storage area. A first ultraviolet radiation source operates at a first peak wavelength and a second ultraviolet radiation source operates at a second peak wavelength that is different from the first peak wavelength.
