How to Convert Terahertz to Nanometers
Wavelength and frequency are inversely related through the speed of light. The formula is: λ = c / f, where λ is the wavelength, c = 299,792,458 m/s (speed of light in vacuum), and f is the frequency.
Conversion Steps
- The formula is:
Wavelength = Speed of Light / Frequency - For example, to convert 21 THz to nm:
- Convert to hertz: 21 THz = 21 × 1.0e+12 = 2.1e+13 Hz
- Apply formula: λ = 299,792,458 / 2.1e+13 Hz = 1.42758e-5 meters
- Convert to nanometers: 1.42758e-5 m / 1.0e-9 = 6.29564e+6 nm
Reverse Conversion
To convert nanometers back to terahertz, use f = c / λ:
- 6.29564e+6 nm → f = 299,792,458 / 1.42758e-5 m = 2.1e+13 Hz → 21 THz
