Interpretation Of Einstein’s
Law
In terms of Quantum efficiency :
Quantum Efficieny ф=
No. of molecules reacting in a given time
No.of quantas of light absorbed in the
same time
Experimentally,
Phosphorescence:
There are certain substances which continue to
glow for some time even after the external
light is cut off. Thus, phosphorescence is a
slow fluorescence.

of excitation of electrons:
