The Planck constant, or Planck's constant, denoted by , [1] is a fundamental physical constant [1] of foundational importance in quantum mechanics: a photon's energy is equal to its frequency multiplied by the Planck constant, and the wavelength of a matter wave equals the Planck constant divided by the associated particle momentum.
This equation is known as the Planck relation. Additionally, using equation f = c/λ, = where E is the photon's energy; λ is the photon's wavelength; c is the speed of light in vacuum; h is the Planck constant; The photon energy at 1 Hz is equal to 6.626 070 15 × 10 −34 J, which is equal to 4.135 667 697 × 10 −15 eV.

The Planck relation [1] [2] [3] (referred to as Planck's energy–frequency relation, [4] the Planck–Einstein relation, [5] Planck equation, [6] and Planck formula, [7] though the latter might also refer to Planck's law [8] [9]) is a fundamental equation in quantum mechanics which states that the energy E of a photon, known as photon energy, is proportional to its frequency ν: =.
where V Hall is the Hall voltage, I channel is the channel current, e is the elementary charge and h is the Planck constant. The divisor ν can take on either integer ( ν = 1, 2, 3,... ) or fractional ( ν = 1 / 3 , 2 / 5 , 3 / 7 , 2 / 3 , 3 / 5 , 1 / 5 , 2 / 9 , 3 / 13 , 5 / ...
In particle physics and physical cosmology, the Planck scale is an energy scale around 1.22 × 10 28 eV (the Planck energy, corresponding to the energy equivalent of the Planck mass, 2.176 45 × 10 −8 kg) at which quantum effects of gravity become significant.
These quanta would have an energy given by the Planck–Einstein relation: = and a momentum vector | | = = =, where ν (lowercase Greek letter nu) and λ (lowercase Greek letter lambda) denote the frequency and wavelength of the light, c the speed of light, and h the Planck constant. [3]
with e being the elementary charge, h being the Planck constant, and c being the speed of light in vacuum, each with exactly defined values. The relative uncertainty in the value of ε 0 is therefore the same as that for the dimensionless fine-structure constant, namely 1.6 × 10 −10. [7]
