Slide 2 1 Slide 3 A photocell is a device for generating an electrical current from light (see Figure 1). Figure 1 Each photocell contains a metal. A photon of light that strikes the metal can eject an electron from the metal if the photon's energy exceeds the metal's work function. The maximum kinetic energy the ejected electron can have is the photon's energy minus the metal's work function. The amount of electrical current varies with light's relative intensity (a measure of the number of photons with a given energy striking the metal each second).
