Photon Flux calculator
Photons per second from optical power.
Category: Photonics
Formula: Φ = P·λ / (h·c)
Inputs
| Input | Parameter | Unit | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| Power | P | mW | 1 |
| λ | lam | nm | 633 |
Result with the default inputs
- Flux: 3.1866e+15 ph/s
Open it with your own values: put each input in the address as a parameter, for example /calculators/photon-flux?P=1. A unit other than the listed one goes in <parameter>_unit.
