Photoelectric Effect

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

I am hoping comsol can model this. I want to model the photo response/QE of a cathode. The model would consist of different wavelengths of light hitting a material which would then convert the photons to electrons, hence the photoelectric effect. Does anyone know or have an idea how to set this up

I have the evaluation version right now, and if I can get this to work I will defiantly have to buy this.

You would have to setup your equations manually. I don't think COMSOL has the right equations setup in any of the modules.
