Photoelectron ejection by electromagnetic wave

Abstract

Albert Einstein has explained photoelectric effect by corpuscle concept of light. Few phenomena are ambiguous in the explanation. The authors have explained photoelectric effect based on recent reported electromagnetic wave theory. The theoretical explanations of this works are covered all phenomena of the photoelectric effect such as the cause of electron ejection, kinetic energy of the photoelectron, the value of number of the photoelectron in the photocurrent, clear concept of ejection direction, initial ejection time, ejection as flog, frequency and intensity dependence, cutoff frequency and work function. The frequency and intensity dependence have been observed experimentally. The experimental observations show similar results of the theoretical explanation i.e. the kinetic energy of the photoelectron is proportional to both the intensity and frequency of light. The works may help to explain other photonic natures by wave theory of light.
