A photoemissive substance is illuminated with a radiation of wavelength $\lambda_i$ so that it releases electrons with de-Broglie wavelength $\lambda_e$. The longest wavelength of radiation that can emit photoelectron is $\lambda_0$. Expression for de-Broglie wavelength is (m = mass of electron, h = Planck's constant, C = Speed of light)
