      • The spectrum does not contain all the colors that the human visual system can distinguish. Unsaturated colors such as pink, or purple variations like magenta, for example, are absent because they can only be made from a mix of multiple wavelengths. Colors containing only one wavelength are also called pure colors or spectral colors.

  2. A spectral color is a color that is evoked by monochromatic light, i.e. either a spectral line with a single wavelength or frequency of light in the visible spectrum, or a relatively narrow spectral band (e.g. lasers).

  3. Jul 26, 2020 · A spectral color is a color that corresponds to a pure wavelength of visible light. All colors are formed with mixes of spectral colors such that they are the root of all color.

  4. Colors that can be produced by visible light of a narrow band of wavelengths (monochromatic light) are called pure spectral colors. The various color ranges indicated in the illustration are an approximation: The spectrum is continuous, with no clear boundaries between one color and the next.

  5. Spectral colours are produced by a single wavelength of light. So each individual wavelength of visible light produces a different spectral colour. Rainbows are produced by spectral colours as sunlight is refracted and dispersed by raindrops.

    In a rainbow or the separation of colors by a prism we see the continuous range of spectral colors (the visible spectrum). A spectral color is composed of a single wavelength and can be correlated with wavelength as shown in the chart below (a general guide and not a precise statement about color).

  7. This diagram shows six spectral colours – red, orange, yellow, green, blue and violet. Spectral colours are produced by a single wavelength of light. Some spectral colours can also be produced by mixing two wavelengths of light together.
