| Schematic of experimental set-up for photoelectric effect |
The experimental circuit to study the photoelectric effect is as shown in the figure.
It consists of an evacuated glass tube with a quartz window containing two photosensitive metal plates. One is the emitter E and another plate is the collector C.
The emitter and collector are connected to a voltage source whose voltage can be changed, and an ammeter is used to measure current.
A potential difference between E and C is measured by a voltmeter. Generally, C (anode) is at a positive terminal with respect to emitter E. When the anode potential (V) is positive, it accelerates the electrons. This potential is called accelerating potential. When the anode potential (V) is negative, it retards the flow of electrons. This potential is known as retarding potential. A source S of monochromahc light of sufficiently high frequency (λ ≤ 10 − 7) is used.
The applied P.D. between the plates can be changed with the help of potential divider arrangements by using a commulator key.
