Retention factor (k) is simply the additional time that the analyte takes to elute from the column relative to an unretained or excluded analyte that does not interact with the stationary phase and which, by definition, has a k value of 0. Thus

Chromatography columns are considered to consist of a number of adjacent zones in each of which there is sufficient space for an analyte to completely equilibrate between the two phases, Each zone is called a theoretical plate (having no N).

The length of column containing one theoretical plate is referred to as the plate height, H, which has units of length normally in micrometers.

The second component is the time the stationary phase retains the analyte, referred to as the adjusted retention time, t’R.
