Here are the lines adopted from atomic spectrum / emission: Other spectrums for reference: UV loosely 100 to 380 nm Photopic (day light human vision) 400 to 660 nm, sensitivity peaks at 555 nm (yellow) Scotopic (night human vision) 380 to 580 nm, sensitivity peaks at 505 nm (green) Reference here NIR (near infrared) (outside human vision to ~900nm) SWIR (Short wave infrared) 0.9 to 1.7µm. I define relative to the InGaAs detector response. Astronomers consider this band to extend out to 2.5µm. MWIR (Mid wave infrared) 3 to 5 µm. The atmosphere has a transmission window here LWIR (Long wave infrared) 8 to 12 µm. The atmosphere has a transmission window here _______________________________________ From "Color Vision and Colorimetry, Theory and Applications" by Daniel Malacara, SPIE press 2002 UV-C: 100 to 280 nm UV-B: 280 to 315 nm UV-A: 315 to 380 nm Violet, Visible: 380 to 430 nm Blue, Visible: 430 to 500 nm Cyan, Visible: 500 to 520 nm Green, Visible: 520 to 565 nm Yellow, Visible: 565 to 580 nm Orange, Visible: 580 to 625 nm Red, Visible: 625 to 740 nm |
