How It Is Used

Each LED is forward biased and the voltage raised in small steps while current is recorded, giving its V-I curve and knee voltage. Comparing the knee voltages of LEDs of different colours shows how emitted wavelength relates to band-gap energy and can be used to estimate Planck’s constant.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can Planck’s constant be estimated with the LED Characteristics Apparatus?

Yes. The knee voltages of LEDs of different wavelengths are compared to relate photon energy to frequency.
