Re-understanding of Wave-particle Duality
Author(s): Dr. Chun Wang*
The author has worked with high-resolution transmission electron microscope for many years, which provides the most direct evidence of wave-particle duality. This relates to Crookes and J. J. Thomson's cathode rays tubes to determine that electron beams are of particle nature. This also relates to Röntgen's discovery that when an electron beam in the cathode rays tube strikes the glass wall, it produces X-rays with extremely high penetrating power. This behavior is consistent with Maxwell-Lorentz’s electrodynamics that electromagnetic waves must be produced whenever electricity carriers alter their velocity. The wave-particle duality proposed by de Broglie refers to accelerated electron beam, rather than single electron. De Broglie emphasized that the crystallographic diffraction pattern produced by his electron beam was completely consistent with the crystallograph.. Read More»
