Electromagnetic spectrum

Learning objectives

  • To have an overview of the whole electromagnetic spectrum.
  • To make the link between wavelength and frequency.

Here is an overview of the electromagnetic spectrum. There are different types of graphics shown: emitting devices, receiving devices or simple illustrative symbols.

Since electromagnetic waves propagate at a constant speed (speed of light), the frequency and the wavelength remain in a constant ratio.
