1 UNIT – 1 QUANTUM PHYSICS Unit-01/Lecture-01 Concept of matter waves Louis de Broglie made the suggestion that particles of matter, like electrons, might possess wave properties and hence exhibit dual nature. His hypothesis was based on the following arguments: The Planck’s theory of radiation suggests that energy is quantized and is given by E = h ν (1) where ν is the frequency associated with the radiation. Einstein’s mass-energy relation states that E = mc 2 … Read more
