Einstein's equation for Photoelectric effect

Explanation of Photoelectric effect by Einstein equation

October 25, 2022September 9, 2021 by Mir

Albert Einstein won the Nobel Prize in 1905 for his explanation of Photoelectric effect. There were some failures of classical mechanics to explain this phenomenon. Then Einstein explained it on the basis of quantum theory. In this article, we are going to explore the definition and properties of Photoelectric effect explained by Einstein and will … Read more
