submillimeter

From that down to a wavelength of about 300 microns, or a third of a millimeter, is what we call the submillimeter range.

"It detects short wavelengths known as submillimeter radiation," Tony told me as his beard iced up.

Terra Incognita Wheeler, Sarah 1996

The terahertz portion of the electromagnetic spectrum is vaguely defined but is basically the band between infrared and microwave radiation, usually considered to run from 300 GHz to perhaps 10 THz, overlapping those bands commonly referred to as submillimeter and far infrared.

We're measuring in the submillimeter, which is a new frontier.

Universe Today 2008

Astronomers said the data from the two 12-meter antennas provided unprecedented sensitivity and resolution, and observations at a wavelength of less than 1mm showed ALMA was now truly a "submillimeter" as well as millimeter-wave telescope.

The Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array project, or ALMA, is presently the largest astronomical project in the world.

I'm suddenly excited about submillimeter astronomy!

This high and dry location allows the telescope to receive more of the light in the submillimeter; water vapor in the atmosphere of the Earth absorbs light in this part of the spectrum.

Well, they're 1/22 of the way there: the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array ALMA, planned to be one of the largest ground-based observatories in the world, successfully linked 3 of its 66 antennas together.

The range of wavelengths that SOFIA can "see" is 0.3 microns to 1.6mm, meaning it's capable of taking images in the infrared and submillimeter.
