The electromagnetic spectrum contains many types of waves, one of which is infrared waves. Other electromagnetic waves include gamma rays, x-rays, ultraviolet, visible light, microwaves, and radio. Infrared waves are electromagnetic radiation of a particular wavelength or color that we have named 'infrared.' They are between 700 nm (nanometers) and 1 mm. Note that 1 mm is equal to 1,000,000 nanometers. They are just beyond what our eyes can detect on the red side of the rainbow.
Infrared spectroscopy examines absorption and transmission of photons in the infrared energy range. Infrared radiation is used in industrial, scientific, and medical applications. Night-vision devices using active near-infrared illumination allow people or animals to be observed without the observer being detected.nfrared lasers are used to provide the light for optical fiber communications systems. Infrared light with a wavelength around 1,330 nm (least dispersion) or 1,550 nm (best transmission) are the best choices for standard silica fibers.
