Photon Physics
A helium-neon laser emits monochromatic light at 632.8 nm. This simulation demonstrates the quantum properties of photons.
Key Equations
Photon Energy: E = hc/λ
Where:
- h = Planck's constant (6.626 × 10⁻³⁴ J·s)
- c = speed of light (3 × 10⁸ m/s)
- λ = wavelength of light
Photon Momentum: p = h/λ
Photon Emission Rate: n = P/E
Where P is the laser power and E is the photon energy.
