Responsivity and Quantum Efficiency
The responsivity graph describes the sensor response to different wavelengths of light
(excluding lens and light source characteristics). Visible light spans wavelengths between
390-780 nanometers. Wavelengths below 390 nm are ultra-violet while those above 780
nm are termed infra-red.
