Davisson-Germer Experiment and Wave-Particle Duality

Explore a 23-minute video lecture on the Davisson-Germer Experiment and wave-particle duality in quantum mechanics. Delve into the experimental evidence supporting de Broglie's hypothesis, which suggests that quantum particles exhibit wave-like properties. Learn how the scattering of electrons from a nickel crystal surface produced interference patterns similar to X-ray diffraction, confirming the wave nature of electrons. Understand the significance of this groundbreaking experiment in establishing the fundamental principle of wave-particle duality and its impact on our understanding of quantum mechanics.
