Wave property of electrons implies that they will show diffraction effects. Davission and Germer demonstrated this by diffracting electrons from crystals. The law governing the diffraction from a crystal is obtained by requiring that electron waves reflected from the planes of atoms in a crystal interfere constructively (see figure) The surface of a metal is illuminated with the light of 400 nm . The kinetic energy of the ejected photoelectrons was found to be 1.68 eV . The work function of the metal is : ( hc = 1240 eV-nm )
