No, as far as I can remember, Robert Millikan was the one who verified Einstein's predictions experimentally.

Why did Robert Andrews Millikan win The Nobel Prize in Physics in 1923?
The Nobel Prize in Physics 1923 was awarded to Robert A. Millikan for his work on the elementary charge of electricity and on the photoelectric effect.
What was Robert Millikan's discovery and when did it happen?
In 1908 Milikan discovered the charge of the elctron which is 1.60 x 10-19. He also confirmed Albert Einstein's theory of the photoelectric effect. He won the noble peace prize in physics, for his discovery of the electron's charge, in 1923.
What is Einstein photoelectric effect?
Einstein's photoelectric effect work found that the incident light involved in the photoelectric effect was made of individual quanta (photons) that interacted with the metal's electrons like discrete particles, not waves.
What year did Albert Einstein discover the photoelectric effect?
1921
Who won the Noble Prize for the photoelectric effect?
Albert Einstein

Who was responsible for the contribution that light is emitted and absorbed in bundles that are dependent on the frequency of a light wave?
The first to observe (but not explain) the photoelectric effect were Hertz and Hallwachs in 1887. Albert Einstein received the 1921 Nobel Prize for physics: ...for his services to Theoretical Physics, and especially for his discovery of the law of the photoelectric effect. His 1905 paper explaining the photoelectric effect was rejected by physicists of that time and only accepted after experiments by Robert Andrews Millikan in 1914 showed that predictions made by Einstein's theory were correct - such as that the energy of individual ejected electrons increases linearly with the frequency of the light.
