Photoelectric effect is the emission of electrons when light hits a material. It demonstrates light's particle nature and is used in photodiodes and image sensors.

公式

The calculator applies KE_max = hf - φ

ステップバイステップガイド

  1. 1Enter photon frequency and material's work function
  2. 2The calculator applies KE_max = hf - φ
  3. 3Results show maximum electron kinetic energy

解いた例

入力
f = 6 × 10¹⁴ Hz, φ = 2 eV
結果
KE_max = 2.48 - 2 = 0.48 eV
Using h = 4.136 × 10⁻¹⁵ eV·s

避けるべきよくある間違い

  • Confusing frequency with wavelength in calculations
  • Thinking intensity affects electron kinetic energy

よくある質問

Why doesn't classical physics explain photoelectric effect?

Classical theory predicts increasing light intensity increases electron kinetic energy, but it doesn't—frequency alone matters.

What's threshold frequency?

Minimum frequency for electron emission: f_threshold = φ/h; below this, no emission regardless of intensity.
