Heinrich Hertz discovered that whether sparks were produced by shining light on a metal depended on the **frequency** of the light, not its amplitude. This could not be explained by the wave model of light, so Albert **Einstein** developed a particle model of light, arguing that an electromagnetic wave can behave as a particle called a(n) **photon**.
