Abstract
Silver and platinum deposited in the form of transparent and semitransparent wedges were examined for variation of the photoelectric current as thickness of the metal was increased. The metal was deposited on quartz by the evaporation method and examined when monochromatic light fell on the metal side of the plate.Keywords
