The infrared part of the electromagnetic spectrum covers the wavelength range from about 1 mm (300 GHz) to 1 μm (300 THz). The infrared (IR) band is usually subdivided into the sub-millimeter (1 mm to 0.3 mm), the far- (0.3 mm to 50 μm, FIR), mid- (50 μm to 10 μm, MIR) and near-infrared (10 μm to 1 μm, NIR). At the long-wavelength end it connects to the radio domain and at the short end to the op...
