quanta: Plural of quantum
quanta: Light can carry energy only in specific amounts, proportional to the frequency, as though it came in packets The term quanta was given to these discrete packets of electromagnetic energy by Max Planck quantum efficiency (or QE) The ratio of the number of photoelectrons released for each incident photon of light absorbed by a detector This ratio cannot exceed unity
quanta: In physics, discrete natural unit, or packet, of energy, charge, angular momentum, or other physical property
quanta: Molecular modeling environment
