The electromagnetic spectrum is the collection of all possible frequencies of electromagnetic waves.
| Type of wave | Frequency range | Wavelength Range |
| Radio Waves | 300 GHz to as low as 3 kHz, | 1 millimeter to 100 kilometers |
| Microwaves | (0.3 to 300) GHz | 1 mm to 1 m |
| Infrared | 300 GHZ to 430 THz | |
| Visible Light | (430–790 THz | 390 to 700 nm |
| UV | 750 THz to 30,000 THz | 10 to 400 nm |
