Description

A physical constant that is the quantum of action in quantum mechanics. The Planck constant was first described as the proportionality constant between the energy of a photon and the frequency of its associated electromagnetic wave.

Note that this is the reduced Planck constant, i.e., the Planck constant divided by 2 π; mathematical symbol h-bar.
