U+8367 "荧" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
荧
U+8367 "荧" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily conveys the meaning of "glow," "luster," or "fluorescence," and it is often associated with the shimmering or twinkling of light. In modern usage, this character appears in compound words such as "荧光" (yíngguāng), meaning "fluorescent light," and is also used in contexts describing beetles emitting bioluminescence. Historically, it derives from a radical composition that combines the grass radical (艹) with elements suggesting fire or light, reflecting its visual association with faint illumination. As part of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified set, 荧 is encoded for digital representation across multiple East Asian writing systems.
