  4. High frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_frequency

    HF's position in the electromagnetic spectrum.. High frequency (HF) is the ITU designation [1] for the band of radio waves with frequency between 3 and 30 megahertz (MHz). It is also known as the decameter band or decameter wave as its wavelengths range from one to ten decameters (ten to one hundred meters).

    For example, a 10 20 Hz gamma ray photon has 10 19 times the energy of a 10 1 Hz extremely low frequency radio wave photon. The effects of EMR upon chemical compounds and biological organisms depend both upon the radiation's power and its frequency.

  6. Extremely high frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extremely_high_frequency

    Extremely high frequency or commonly known as "EHF", is a large broadband that span a radius of about (30 GHz to 300 GHz) for the molecular spectra of radio frequencies. It lies between the super high frequency (3 GHz to 30 GHz) band and the far infrared band (300 GHz to 10 15), for which the lower part is the terahertz band.

  7. Radio frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_frequency

    Radio frequency (RF) is the oscillation rate of an alternating electric current or voltage or of a magnetic, electric or electromagnetic field or mechanical system in the frequency [1] range from around 20 kHz to around 300 GHz.

  8. Terahertz radiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terahertz_radiation

    Terahertz waves lie at the far end of the infrared band, just before the start of the microwave band. Terahertz radiation – also known as submillimeter radiation, terahertz waves, tremendously high frequency [1] (THF), T-rays, T-waves, T-light, T-lux or THz – consists of electromagnetic waves within the International Telecommunication Union-designated band of frequencies from 0.3 to 3 ...

    In 1887, German physicist Heinrich Hertz demonstrated the reality of Maxwell's electromagnetic waves by experimentally generating electromagnetic waves lower in frequency than light, radio waves, in his laboratory, [6] showing that they exhibited the same wave properties as light: standing waves, refraction, diffraction, and polarization.
