Planck relation
The Planck relation (referred to as Planck's energy–frequency relation, the Planck–Einstein relation, Planck equation, and Planck formula, though the latter might also refer to Planck's law) is a fundamental equation in quantum mechanics which states that the photon energy E is proportional to the photon frequency ν (or f): E = h ν = h f . {\displaystyle E=h\nu =hf.} The constant of proportionality, h, is known as the Planck constant.
