Optical radiation
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Optical radiation is the part of the electromagnetic spectrum with wavelengths between 100 nm and 1 mm.[1][2] This range includes visible light, infrared light, and part of the ultraviolet spectrum.[3] Optical radiation is non-ionizing,[4] and can be focused with lenses and manipulated by other optical elements. Optics is the study of how to manipulate optical radiation.
