   infrared
   Light that is so red humans cannot see it. A band of the electromagnetic spectrum between the visible and the microwave. Photons of infrared light are less energetic than photons of visible light.

   Infrared
   Infrared radiation is invisible. It is a form of electromagnetic radiation, with a wavelength just longer than that of visible red light. Infrared light is use in telecommunications (via optical fibres). It is used in medicine to diagnose illness (thermograms) and accelerate healing in physiotherapy. Loosely speaking, infrared radiation can be thought of as 'heat rays'

   Infrared
   The band of electromagnetic wavelengths between 700nm to about 1mm. The transmission of light in glass optical fibres is most efficient in the infrared, at wavelengths from 1100nm to 850nm.

6. 
   infrared
   (Learning Modules / Geography / Weather forecasting) Part of the electromagnetic spectrum with wavelengths slightly longer than visible light. Infrared radiation correlates closely to the temperature of a body and so infrared images from space can give quite detailed information on cloud temperatures and therefore height - since higher parts of the atmosphere are colder.

   Infrared
   An area in the electromagnetic spectrum extending beyond red light from 760 nanometers to 1000 microns (106 nm). It is the form of radiation used for making non-contact temperature measurements.

   infrared
   (electronics) (IR) Electromagnetic waves in the frequency range just below visible light corresponding to radiated heat. IR waves can be generated by a kind of LED and are often used for remote controls for televisions etc. and in some docking stations. (1997-01-30)

    Infrared
    `Infrared` (`IR`) radiation is electromagnetic radiation of a wavelength longer than that of visible light, but shorter than that of microwaves. The name means `below red` (from the Latin `infra`, `below`), red being the color of visible light with the longest wavelength. Infrared radiation has wavelengths between about 750 nm and 1 mm, spanning five orders of magnitude. Infrared imaging is used extensively for both military and civili...

    INFRARED
    The long wave, electromagnetic radiation of radiant heat emitted by all hot objects. On the electromagnetic spectrum, it can be found between microwave radiation and visible light. Water vapor, ozone, and carbon dioxide are capable of absorbing or transmitting infrared radiation. May be referred to as IR.
