Albert Einstein's contribution to our understanding of the photoelectric effect was to explain it using the concept of quantized light energy in his 1905 paper on the photoelectric effect. He proposed that light is composed of discrete packets of energy known as photons, and that the intensity of light determines the number of photons but not their energy. This work helped lay the foundation for the development of quantum mechanics.
