"Whether light is a particle or a wave is a very old question," Riccardo Sapienza, a physicist at Imperial College London, told Live Science. As a species, we seem driven to understand the ...

The original waves In 1924, French physics doctoral student Louis de Broglie proposed that matter has a wave-like property. De Broglie was inspired by the discovery of wave-particle duality in light.

First proposed by the French physicist Louis de Broglie in 1924 and expanded upon by Erwin Schrödinger two years later, wave particle duality states that all quantum-sized objects, and therefore ...
