If we allow radiations of a fixed frequency to fall on plate and the accelerating potential difference between the two electrodes is kept fixed, then the photoelectric current is found to increase linearly with the intensity of incident radiation. Here, radiation pressure is P = \(\left(\frac{1+e}{C}\right) I\). As, atmosphere pressure at sea level is 10⁵Pa. If the intensity of light of a given wavelength, is increased, there is an increase in the number of photons incident on a given area in a given time. But the energy of each photon remain the same.

According to de-Broglie, a moving material particle sometimes acts as a wave and sometimes as a particle or a wave associated with moving material particle which controls the particle in every respect. The wave associated with moving particle is called matter wave or de-Broglie wave where wavelength called de-Broglie wavelength is given by \(\lambda=\frac{h}{m v}\)

According to wave theory, the light of any frequency can emit electrons from metallic surface provided the intensity of light be sufficient to provided necessary energy for emission of electrons, but according to experimental observations, the light of frequency less than threshold frequency can not emit electrons; whatever be the intensity of incident light. Einstein also proposed that electromagnetic radiation is quantised.If photoelectrons are ejected from a surface when light of wavelength \(\lambda\) ₁= 550 nm is incident on it. The stopping potential for such electrons is V_s = 0.19 V. Suppose the radiation of wavelength \(\lambda\)₂= 190 nm is incident on the surface.

(A) there is a minimum frequency of light below which no photoelectrons are emitted.
(B) the maximum K.E. of photoelectric depends only on the frequency of light and not on its intensity.

The photon picture of electromagnetic radiations and the characteristic properties of photons are as follows:In the interaction of radiation with matter, radiation behaves as if it is made of particles like photons. Each photon has energy \(E(=h v=h c / \lambda)\) and momentum \(p\left(=\frac{h v}{c}=\frac{h}{\lambda}\right)\) where h is Planck's constant, v and A are the frequency and wavelength of radiation and c is the velocity of light. The photon energy is independent of the intensity of radiations. All the photons emitted from a source of radiations travel through space with the same speed c. The frequency of photon gives the radiation, a definite energy (or colour) which does not change when photon travels through different media. Photons are not deflected by electric and magnetic fields. This shows that photons are electrically neutral.

To study photoelectric effect, an emitting electrode C of a photosensitive material is kept at negative potential and collecting electrode A is kept at positive potential in an evacuated tube. When light of sufficiently high frequency falls on emitting electrode, photoelectrons are emitted which travel directly to collecting electrode and hence an electric cusrent called photoelectric current starts flowing in the circuit, which is directly proportional to the number of photoelectrons emitted by emitting electrode C.

While demonstrating the existence of electromagnetic waves, Hertz found that high voltage sparks passed across the metal electrodes of the detector loop more easily when the cathode was illuminated by ultraviolet light from an arc lamp. The ultraviolet light falling on the metal surface caused the emission of negatively charged particles,which are now known to be electrons, into the surrounding space and hence enhanced the high voltage sparks.
