Is electron really a particle or wave?
Upto the year 1924, electron was exclusively regarded as a particle. However, in 1924, de-Broglie suggested that an electron behaves both as a material particle and as a wave. Just like light, some experimental facts can be explained by assuming electrons as..
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..
De-Broglie Relationship
de Broglie wave equation 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 mas..
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, mass and energy are related as: E = mc 2..

Distinction between Wave and Particle
A particle occupies a well-defined position in space, which cannot be simultaneously occupied by another particle. If there is more than one particle in a given region of space, then their sum is equal to the number of individual particles. The sum can ..
Electromagnetic Waves and Matter Waves
Distinction between Electromagnetic Waves and Matter Waves - The important differences between electromagnetic waves and matter waves are given below: Electromagnetic waves Matter waves Electromagnetic are associated with electric and magn..
Matter waves
Under certain experimental conditions, a beam of particles (for example, electrons ) can exhibit wavelike properties. Such matter waves are governed by the laws of quantum physics. The wavelength is inversely proportional to the momentum of the particles. These are al..

Wave nature of material objects
In 1924, de Broglie's suggested that all material objects including an electron have a dual character; they behave as particles as well as waves. The wavelength associated with a particle of mass 'm', moving with velocity 'v' is given by de Broglie..
