L. de Broglie:
particle-wave duality
= h/mv
e Broglies argument:
Therefore h = pc
Since = c
Thus
p = h/orh/p for
light
Or p = h/(V/) = h/(/) = h/
i.e. = h/p, since p=mv for massive particles,
Davisson-Germer experiment
Bragg condition:
n= 2dsin
After Davisson-Germer
experiment, the wave
nature of massive
particles was no longer
in doubt.
Neutron optics became
a powerful technology.

cold neutrons have
long wavelength
