Absorption band

Absorptions bands in the Earth's atmosphere created by greenhouse gases and the resulting effects on transmitted radiation.

In quantum mechanics, an absorption band is a range of wavelengths, frequencies or energies in the electromagnetic spectrum that are characteristic of a particular transition from initial to final state in a substance.

According to quantum mechanics, atoms and molecules can only hold certain defined quantities of energy, or exist in specific states.[1] When such quanta of electromagnetic radiation are emitted or absorbed by an atom or molecule, energy of the radiation changes the state of the atom or molecule from an initial state to a final state.
