Birth Defect of the Equation E_max=hf-W

Authors: Cameron Wong

Everyone studying photoelectric effect must know this equation E_max=hf-W (Eq.01) where E_max is said to represent the maximum kinetic energy that a photoelectron carries when flying across the electrodes, h is the Planck constant, f is the frequency of an incident light, and W is the so-called work function. Based on this equation, a concept called photon, then further called quantum, is firmly rooted in modern physics.
