De-Broglie Relationship - De-Broglie noted that according to the theory of relativity, the role played by momentum 'P' and the energy 'E' of the particle is done by angular frequency ' w ' and the propagation vector 'k' of a wave. According to Einstein relation E = mc 2 Where 'm..

De-Broglie noted that according to the theory of relativity, the role played by momentum 'P' and the energy 'E' of the particle is done by angular frequency ' w ' and the propagation vector 'k' of a wave. According to Einstein relation E = mc 2 Where 'm' is the mass of the particle an..

Similar to the crystal diffraction patterns produced by X-rays, even the beam of electrons of appropriate momentum could produce crystal diffraction pattern. Imparting the desired momentum to the electron obtained by thermionic emission from a heated filament was done by electrostatic acceleration...

Derivation of de-Broglie Relationship - The relationship may be derived by combining the mass-energy relationship proposed by Max Planck and Einstein. According to Planck, photon of light having energy E is associated with a wave of frequency n as: E = h n .....(1) According to Einstein, ..

Light has been regarded as waves to explain the phenomena of reflection, refraction, diffraction etc. However in 1905, Albert Einstein suggested that light has a dual character, which means, it can behave as a particle as well as a wave. It was observed that some of the experimental facts regarding..

The suggestion that matter may have wave like properties was first put forwarded in 1924-1925 by Louis De Broglie. He argued that if light, which consists of waves according to classical picture, can sometimes behave like particles, then it should be possible for matter, which consi..

Dual Nature of Matter and Radiation - Light has been regarded as waves to explain the phenomena of reflection, refraction, diffraction etc. However in 1905, Albert Einstein suggested that light has a dual character, which means, it can behave as a particle as well as a wave. It was observed that so..

>Similar to light, matter also manifests itself in the form of particles as well as waves. Compton effect, and Davison and Germer's experiment stand as evidence for dual nature of matter. If an electron acts as a wave, its wavelength is calculated to be Davison and Germer showed the electron diffra..
