De-Broglie waves

all particles.

wavelength=h/momentum

 

his hypothesis came from:

[math]E^2=(pc)^2+(mc^2)^2[/math]

for a photon,

[math]E=hf=\frac{hc}{\lambda}[/math]

[math]E=pc[/math]

[math]\frac{hc}{\lambda}=pc[/math]

[math]\lambda=\frac{h}{p}[/math]

 

deBroglie hypothesized that perhaps this equation works for all things, not just photons.

 

the diffraction pattern of electrons match his hypothesized.
