les,called photons,
Einstein assumed that the
energy in a light beam travels
through space in concentrated
bund
pi The energy E of a single
photon is given by
E = hv,
Applying the photon
concept to the photoelectric
effect,Einstein wrote

Equation above says that a photon
carries an energy hv into the sur-
face,Part of this energy A0 is used
in causing the electron to pass
through the metal surface,The
excess energy (hv-A0) is given to
the electron in the form of kinetic
energy,
In 1916,Milikan,experiments
verified Einstein’s ideas in
every detail,
Einstein succeed in explaining
the photoelectric effect,

3,The Compton effect (康普顿效应 )
Compelling confirmation of the
concept of the photon as a concen-
trated bundle of energy was provided
in 1923 by A.H.Compton who earned
a Noble prize for this work in 1927,
Compton allowed a beam of X-rays
of sharply defined wavelengthλto fall
on a graphite block,He measured,
for various angles of scattering,
the intensity of the scattered X-rays
as a function of their wavelength,

?This so-called Compton
shift △ ? varies with the
angle at which the
scattered X-rays are
observed,
?Compton shift △ ? for
collisions with tightly
bound electrons is
immeasurably small,
3) Explain Compton Effect 对康普顿效应的解释
Compton was able to explain his experimental
results by postulation that the incoming X-ray
beam was not a wave but an assembly of photons
of energy E (= hv) and that these photons expe-
rienced billiard-ball-like collisions with the free
electrons in the scattering block,

4) Significance
A) Compelling confirmation
of the concept of the photon as
a concentrated bundle of energy
was provided,The photon has
mass,energy and momentum,
B) In microscopic field,the law of conservation of
momentum and the law of conservation of energy
are still strictly observed,
