Definition

EN

quotient of radiant energy and photon energy, expressed by

N p = Q e h ν

where Q e is radiant energy (radiant energy <electromagnetism>), h is the Planck constant (ISO 80000-1), and ν is the frequency (ISO 80000-3: Space and time) of the corresponding electromagnetic wave

FR

quotient de l'énergie rayonnante par l'énergie photonique, exprimée par

N p = Q e h ν

où Q e est l'énergie rayonnante (radiant energy <electromagnetism>), h est la constante de Planck (ISO 80000-1), et ν est la fréquence (ISO 80000-3: Space and time) de l'onde électromagnétique correspondante

Notes

EN

Photon number can also be expressed by the time integral of the photon flux (photon flux), Φ p , over a given duration, Δ t ,

N p = ∫ Δ t Φ p d t
FR

Le nombre de photons peut également être exprimé par l'intégrale par rapport au temps du flux photonique (photon flux), Φ p , pendant une durée donnée, Δ t ,

N p = ∫ Δ t Φ p d t
