Why You See This Color (730 nm)
At 730 nm, Long-wavelength sensitive (L) cone responses dominate, although cone sensitivity curves overlap rather than switching on or off at exact boundaries. With a frequency of 410.675 THz and lower photon energy (1.698 eV), this stimulus is generally perceived as deep red. Near the 700–750 nm boundary, eye sensitivity tapers toward the infrared threshold.
