CLINTON JOSEPH DAVISSON, WHO DISCOVERED ELECTRON DIFFRACTION


It's the birthday🎂 of #ClintonJosephDavisson, the man who discovered electron diffraction --

He shared the #NobelPrize for Physics in 1937 with #GeorgePagetThomson of England for discovering that electrons can be diffracted like light waves, thus verifying the thesis of #Louis_de_Broglie that electrons behave both as #waves and as #particles.

What is diffraction and what is Davisson-Germer experiment that confirmed the de Broglie hypothesis.. You can read the full article on Instagram here https://www.instagram.com/radhamohankunwar
