0.3-3.0THz is given usually named just THz, given surrounding bands are already named.
Another convention is sub-mm, given the wavelength is just that, being on the order of microns.
- Dylan16807 4y ago"Named", yes. Ugh. I mean, find a random person on the street and ask them to sort "Extremely", "Super", and "Ultra", and how confident they are.
- was_a_dev 4y agoI don't understand your point. Every part of the EM spectrum is "Named"
- Dylan16807 4y agoMy point is that the names are awful and hard to remember, so they're almost worse than using the numbers by themselves.
- was_a_dev 4y agoMaybe - I work in the THz field, so it might seem more intuitive to me. But naming is hard by the admission of software engineers, right?
- Sporktacular 4y agoThe lack of a common name among laymen is due to the 'dead zone' itself - lack of technology/applications etc. entering popular usage. Would Extreme Infrared work?
