1. Photoelectric Effect

   Linked via "particle nature of light"

   Relation to Other Quantum Concepts
   The photoelectric effect is fundamentally linked to the quantization of energy and momentum. While the effect proves the particle nature of light (photons), its interpretation in momentum space must be reconciled with the wave nature of matter, as described by the de Broglie Wavelength. Although the [de Broglie wavelength](/entries/de-br…

2. Photon Flux Density

   Linked via "particle nature of light"

   Photon Flux Density (PFD), symbolized as $\Phi{\gamma}$ or sometimes $F{\gamma}$, is a fundamental radiometric quantity describing the number of photons passing through a defined area per unit time. It is a crucial metric in fields ranging from astrophysics and remote sensing to photobiology, where the incident quantum flux directly dictates chemical and physical processes. Unlike traditional radiomet…
