spectral band

https://doi.org/10.1351/goldbook.08285
Region of the absorption/transmission spectrum in which the absorbance/transmission passes through a maximum/minimum.
Note:
The use of the term "spectral band" implies a wider region of the spectrum than "spectral line" (see spectral line of an atom).
