1) CLASSICAL WAVE THEORY
We have seen that electromagnetic energy (such as light) behaves as a continuous wave - It can
be reflected, refracted and diffracted. More importantly, it can produce interference (which is the test
for wave motion).

λ
A continuous electromagnetic wave is shown:
Such a continuous electromagnetic wave has a velocity (v) of 3 x 108 m s-1 in air,
a frequency (f) measured in hertz and wavelength (λ
λ) measured in metres.
The equation
# λ
applies to the wave.
2) QUANTUM THEORY
In the early years of the 20 th century
(about 100 years ago), scientists Max Planck
and Albert Einstein proposed an alternative
theory for electromagnetic energy
- The quantum theory:

Electromagnetic energy is a stream of tiny, individual "wave packets" called quanta or photons:
λ

As with classical wave theory, each photon has a velocity (v) of 3 x 108 m s-1 in air,
a frequency (f) measured in hertz and wavelength (λ
λ) measured in metres.
The equation
# λ
applies to each photon.
However, the energy of a photon does not depend on amplitude.
The energy (E) of a photon is directly proportional to its frequency (f):
α
#
The constant is named after Max Planck (Planck's constant) and is given the symbol h:

Example
In air, a photon of yellow light has a wavelength of 589 nm (i.e., 589 x 10-9 m).
Calculate: (a) the frequency of the photon;
(b) the energy of the photon.

3) THE PHOTOELECTRIC EFFECT
WORK FUNCTION
On the surface of metals, there are tiny particles called electrons.
The electrons are held on the metal surface by attractive forces.
If an electron is to escape from the metal surface, it must overcome these attractive forces.
The work function of a metal is the energy which must be supplied
to enable an electron to escape from the metal surface.
PHOTOELECTRIC EFFECT / PHOTOELECTRIC EMISSION
If one photon of electromagnetic energy (E = hf) strikes a metal surface, it causes one electron to be
emitted from the metal surface if the photon's energy (hf) is equal to or greater than the
work function of the metal, part of the photon's energy being used to enable the electron to escape.
The rest of the photon's energy is given to the emitted electron as kinetic energy. The photon then
no longer exists - This is known as the photoelectric effect and the emission of the electron is
known as photoelectric emission or photoemission.
THRESHOLD FREQUENCY (fo)
A photon must have a minimum energy equal to the work function of a metal and hence a minimum
frequency (fo) to emit an electron from the metal surface. This minimum frequency (fo) is called the
threshold frequency for the metal. Each metal has its own unique value of threshold frequency (fo).

This apparatus is used to investigate the photoelectric effect:
When electromagnetic radiation of sufficient
energy/frequency strikes the metal surface,
electrons are emitted from the metal surface
(1 electron per photon). The emitted electrons are
attracted to the positively-charged plate through
the vacuum (there are no air molecules to stop
them) - An electric current (known as a
photoelectric current) is thus created in the
circuit, so the ammeter displays a current reading.
[The constant voltage supply is used to give the
plates inside the vacuum their
- and + electric charge].
