im doing a project that deals with the light spectrum-- i would like to know if theres a way to see invisable light using emitting and detecting diodes to show that this certain light exists even tho its not visable to the human eye-- but can be detected using electronic circuits on a circuit board-- thanks

Infrared emitters and sensors are what you need. They are available from a number of sources. Here is a page out of Digi-Key's catalog:

confident it relatively is as others have stated although a minimum of one have been given the order incorrect. The electromagnetic spectrum going from longer wavelengths to shorted is going Radiowaves > Microwaves > Infrared > seen easy (crimson-violet) > Ultraviolet > X-rays > Gamma rays. they're all composed of photons. As somebody else stated there at the instant are not any sparkling divides between them - the variations are human labels - no longer something extra - to make the factor, evaluate that particular animals have distinctive barriers on what easy is seen to them - many birds and bugs can see extremely nicely in to the ultraviolet and have coats and markings that take place below a blacklight.

light can be seen by humen being in the wavelength region 400nm to 700nm this region is also known as visible region of spectrum. Humen being cant see the color <400 & >700 nm

However if u hold a paper containing optical brightner u can see brilliance due to the reason that absorbed light at 360 nm is emitted in region at 420 nm

Ultraviolet is too high a frequency for us to see. Higher still is X-rays, and the highest category is gamma radiation, which comes from radioactivity and nuclear power. Infrared is too low a frequency for us to see, and microwaves are lower still. The lowest category is radio waves.

Most of it! Your eye only see from about 400 nanometers to 700 nanometers.

Ultraviolet (too fast)
Infared (too slow)

contained within that would be things like x-rays and mircrowaves
