there is also an answer in another way. ". The photoelectric effect is the emission of electrons or other free carriers when light shines on a material. Electrons emitted in this manner can be called photo electrons. This phenomenon is commonly studied in electronic physics, as well as in fields ofchemistry, such as quantum chemistry or electrochemistry"..!
