Einstein proposed that light incident on a photo-electric material (indeed, all light), is composed of chunks (he and Max Planck used the term "quanta," the term eventually became "photons"), and that the amount of energy in each chunk was equal to the frequency of the light times Planck's Constant. This explained many puzzling facts about the photo-electric effect, such as (1) why current began to flow almost immediately, even for very low intensity light, (2) why light, no matter how intense, had to be above a certain frequency to get any photo-electric effect, and (3) why higher frequency light resulted in more energetic electrons leaving the material.

What was Einsteins contribution to our understanding of the photoelectric effect?
He wrote a paper that described the photoelectric effect. The paper contained equations used to explain why certain wavelengths of light cause the p-e effect but others do not and the energy changes in the electrons during the p-e effect.
