What is wave particle theory???!! 😵😵 The wave-particle duality of electrons is a fundamental concept in quantum mechanics. It states that electrons have both wave-like and particle-like properties. This means that electrons can behave as both waves and particles, depending on the experimental setup. For example, in nutshell, when an electron is observed in a double-slit experiment, it behaves like a wave and shows interference patterns. However, when it is detected by a detector, it behaves like a particle. This phenomenon has revolutionized our understanding of the behavior of matter at the atomic and subatomic level. This duality was first proposed by scientists like Louis de Broglie and later supported by experiments conducted by pioneers such as Thomas Young and Arthur Compton. It challenged the classical Newtonian physics that described particles as localized objects with well-defined positions and velocities. Thomas Young's double-slit experiment Thomas Young's dou...
