Abstract:The development of the quantum theory has been ongoing for many years. The wave-particle duality has been and is central to debates among physicists, in their endeavor to understand and bring more insight about the quantum theory. In this paper attempts by physicists to clarify the wave-particle duality are discussed. The wave or particle or both state of matter is analyzed, followed by discussion on the criticisms on de Broglie equation. Lastly, the paper concludes that debates on the wave-particle duality wi… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
