De Broglie Waves Centenary: Revisiting Its Various Aspects

  • Vishwamittar

摘要

In 1923, in a series of three notes, de Broglie asserted that, like the photons, moving material particles are also associated with waves having wavelength λ = h/∣p∣, where h is Planck’s constant and p is the linear momentum of the particle. In Part 1 of this two-part series, we provide a comprehensive look at the basics of de Broglie’s hypothesis of matter waves and irrefutable experimental evidence that these waves are a reality.
