Spectral photon flow

Term · Chemistry · MLC-T-CHM-011133

The number of photons per unit time, per unit wavelength interval, emitted from a source or passing through a specified area. This quantity characterizes the rate of photon transport as a function of wavelength. It is typically measured in units of photons per second per nanometer (photons s^-1 nm^-1).
