This effect causes the attenuation coefficient to sharply increase in the K edge.
This effect causes the attenuation coefficient to sharply increase in the K edge. This effect is used tomeasure molecular orbital energies in a type of spectroscopy that uses UV radiation as a source. This effectis combined with secondary emission to detect UV, visible, and near IR radiation with great sensitivity invacuum tubes named for being a "multiplier" of this effect. The stopping voltage for this effect does notdepend on incident intensity. This effect requires a threshold kinetic energy to be met that is equivalent tothe work function. For 10 points, name this effect in which an incident photon results in the emission of anelectron from a metal surface, described by Einstein in a 1905 paper.
