Photoelectric Effect under cutoff frequency

[QUOTE="Djinn Ming, post: 5442660, member: 590935"] I understand the concepts of photoelectric effect where an electron will be emitted when a photon with sufficient energy collides with it. There are two parts to this question, 1. What happens during the collision? Is the photon absorbed by the photoelectron wholly as energy? 2. If so, what happens if photon is under the cutoff frequency? If energy is absorbed, wouldn't a second collision cause a release of photoelectron. [/QUOTE]
