'Purple' is a subjective designation used to identify a grouping of electromagnetic waves in the spectrum of electgromagnetic frequency; the 'oscillation limits' determine the position on the scale of electromagnetic frequency (I think! ... Physicists, Faraday, longshadow, and others will hopefully correct me here.)

Actually structures in our eyes called cones which are sensitive to various wavelengths of electromagnetic energy send signals to our brains which then process and interpret these signals as color.
