Louis de Broglie (In full:Louis-Victor-Pierre-Raymond, 7th duc de Broglie) was an eminent French physicist. He gained worldwide acclaim for his groundbreaking work on quantum theory. In his 1924 thesis, he discovered the wave nature of electrons and suggested that all matter have wave properties.
Jun 8, 2018 · Louis de Broglie achieved a worldwide reputation for his discovery of the wave theory of matter, for which he received the Nobel Prize for physics in 1929. His work was extended into a full-fledged wave mechanics by Erwin Schrödinger and thus contributed to the creation of quantum mechanics.
Feb 12, 2024 · In the early 20th century, physicist Louis de Broglie introduced a groundbreaking concept—that particles can exhibit wave-like characteristics, merging the disparate realms of quantum theory and classical mechanics.
