Question: Going purely on memory from my school days, I had thought that one
feature of the photoelectric effect that could not be explained by classical
EM + quantized matter was that no matter how dim a beam of light was
illuminating the surface, the photoelectrons appear immediately.    Easy to
explain with photons; how is it explained with the classical EM + quantized
matter explanation ?

regards,
