text: Spectral responsivity is a similar measurement, but it has different units: amperes per watt (A/W); (i.e. how much current comes out of the device per unit of incident light power). Responsivity is ordinarily specified for monochromatic light (i.e. light of a single wavelength). Both the quantum efficiency and the responsivity are functions of the photons' wavelength (indicated by the subscript λ).
  To convert from responsivity (, in A/W) to QE (on a scale 0 to 1):
  where  is the wavelength in nm, h is the Planck constant, c is the speed of light in vacuum, and e is the elementary charge. Note that the unit W/A (watts per ampere) is equivalent to V (volts).
