Sci Contribution

The document discusses key scientific contributions to the understanding of wave-particle duality. It highlights the theories of Louis de Broglie on matter waves, Davisson and Germer's experiments on electron diffraction, Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, and Schrödinger's concept of electrons as standing waves. Each contribution emphasizes the wave-like properties of particles and the limitations in measuring their exact position and momentum.

k PROPONENTS
Louis de Broglibzbjxxne Matter Waves According to De Broglie all
matter could be viewed as
having wave properties. All
particles and even humans
have a wavelength that is
related to the momentum of
the particles.
Clinton Davisson and Lester Diffraction Pattern The experiment set-up for the
Germer experiment is confined within a
vacuum chamber, thus the
deflection and scattering of
electrons by the medium are
prevented. The electrons
formed a diffraction pattern.
Werner Karl Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle The exact position of a wave
cannot be measured because a
wave is spread out. One cannot
specify the position and
momentum of spread-out
electron.
Erwin Schrodinger Standing Wave The electron might be a
standing wave around a
nucleus. A standing wave is like
a string stretched between two
points and plucked, like a guitar
string.
