photon energy
(the energy carried by a single photon)
The term photon energy is used for the energy carried
by a single photon of electromagnetic radiation (EMR). It is directly
related to the wave's frequency:
E = h × f
A typical unit of measurement is the electron volt (eV).
For short-wavelength, high-frequency EMR
(gamma rays, X-rays, and often the shorter-wavelength
portion of ultraviolet), it is often used to describe the EMR,
whereas wavelength or frequency is more often used for
longer-wavelength EMR.
