Luis de Broglie was the atomic theorist to incorporate the ideas of Planck and Einstein that electrons can be both waves and particles. He developed the de Broglie hypothesis stating that any moving particle or object had an associated wave (wave-particle duality). De Broglie thus created a new field in physics called wave mechanics, uniting the physics of light and matter. For this he won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1929. Among the applications of this work has been the development of electron microscopes. Set the back to Switch to the Electron Wave model.

Move the slider all the way over to reset the Spectrometer, set Light Slow…Fast Fast, Controls to White, and let the simulation run for 1 minutes. Click on the Spectrometer camera to take a snapshot of the de Broglie model. Compare it to the Experiment. Slide the snapshot off to the right for later comparison with other models.
