4.1 Determining Planck's constant (h)
•
Connect the diodes individually via the resistance
to the voltage source. Make sure they are forward
biased.
•
Switch on the power supply unit after setting it to
the minimum voltage.
•
Gradually increase the voltage.
The diodes light up when the bias voltage U
connections 1 and 4) has been reached.
For a wavelength of 950 nm, the light emission can be
observed through the viewfinder of a digital camera.
4.2 Evaluation
•
Calculate the frequency values from the wave-
lengths.
f = c/λ
•
Calculate the values for energy.

•
Based on the energy values in the E/f curve, calcu-
late the gradient of the curve.
•
Derive the constant (Planck's constant h) from
the gradient.
