Document Summary
Below a certain energy threshold electrons will not be ejected regardless of the light intensity. Work function, band diagram for a metal. Case 1: no photoemission when hv is less than the work function. Case 2: hv=the work function of metal, no photoemission. Case 3: hv is greater than work function of metal, there is photoemission. Kinetic energy = every of photon - energy that binding. Less and equal to work function of metal is no photoemission. Greater than the work function of metal there is photoemission. Different metal have different thresholds because the possess different work functions but the slop is the same. P subshell (l=1) 3 orbitals (ml= -1,0,1) D subshell (l=2) 5 orbital (ml= -2,-1,0,1,2) Energy of electron is most dependent upon the shell number (4>3>2>1) Orbital sizes increases as n (quantum energy, size and energy) increases. Energy of electron in subshell increases moving from s to f.
