According to Einstein's photoelectric equation,

           
               Where, m= mass of the electron
                
If the frequency of incident radiation is less than the threshold value (), the K.E. of emitted electron is nagative i.e. photoelectric emission will not take place, no matter how large is the intensity of the incident radiation.
