On a New Photoelectric Effect in Alkali Cells

On a New Photoelectric Effect in Alkali Cells If two monochromatic beams fall simultaneously on an alkali electrode, a new photoelectric effect is shown as follows: If the intensity of the high frequency light ν 1 is sufficient to establish the limiting potential corresponding to the Einstein law, the presence of any component of lower frequency ν 2 diminishes the potential according to the following equation R = c ( n 2 n 1 ) · ( ν 1 ν 2 ) ( ν 1 - ν 2 ) h e where R is the potential decrease and n 2 n 1 the ratio of the electronic emission of the two components, measured by the test cell itself. A tentative explanation of the phenomenon is advanced. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Physical Review American Physical Society (APS)

Abstract

If two monochromatic beams fall simultaneously on an alkali electrode, a new photoelectric effect is shown as follows: If the intensity of the high frequency light ν 1 is sufficient to establish the limiting potential corresponding to the Einstein law, the presence of any component of lower frequency ν 2 diminishes the potential according to the following equation R = c ( n 2 n 1 ) · ( ν 1 ν 2 ) ( ν 1 - ν 2 ) h e where R is the potential decrease and n 2 n 1 the ratio of the electronic emission of the two components, measured by the test cell itself. A tentative explanation of the phenomenon is advanced.
