Photon energy: E = h·f

Layer 1 — Physicsin the terahertz-physics subtree

The Planck-Einstein relation E = h·f specifies the quantum energy of a single photon of frequency f, with h = 6.626·10⁻³⁴ J·s Planck's constant. For the terahertz band (0.1-10 THz), photon energies span 0.4-40 meV — comparable to thermal…
