Photoelectric effect
Photoelectric emission is the phenomena by which a good number
of substances, chiefly metals,emit electrons under the influence of radiation such as γ rays, X-rays, ultraviolet and even visible light. This effect was discovered by Heinrich Hertz in 1887 while working with resonance electrical circuits. Hallwachs,Elster and Geitel investigated the phenomenon with a simple experimental arrangement after one year.
