$A$ photoemissive substance is illuminated with a radiation of wavelength $\lambda_i$ so that it releases electrons with de-Broglie wavelength $\lambda_e$. The longest wavelength of radiation that can emit photoelectron is $\lambda_0$. The expression for the de-Broglie wavelength $\lambda_e$ is ($m = \text{mass of electron}$, $h = \text{Planck's constant}$, $c = \text{speed of light}$):

The stopping potential of the photoelectrons from a photocell is:
