How can a photon have frequency?

A particle - such as a photon - has a certain probability of being in different places. It can't be known for sure, in advance, where it will actually be located. An experiment that focuses on particle properties may then find that the particle impacted in a specific place - but this can't be known in advance.

What is the minimum energy to produce ionization?

The minium required energy of a photon that is involved in the creation of an electron-positron pair (which is pair production), is 1.022 MeV.An electron-positron pair has a given probability of being produced when a photon of the stated energy (or a higher energy) passes close the nucleus of an atom. Pair production does not happen "in the presence of a photon" but happens as a direct result of the the actual presence of a photon (having at least the stated energy) in the presence of an atomic nucleus. The presence of an atomic nucleus is necessary to insure conservation of the quantum mechanical characteristics of the event. Said another way, the high energy photon alone cannot spontaneously create the electron-positron pair in pair production. A link can be found below to related questions.
