Einstein, in his famous \"photoelectric effect experiment\" demonstrated that light can behave as a waves. In 1924, Louis de Broglie suggested that just as light exhibits wave properties. All microscopic material particles such as electrons, protons, atoms, molecules etc. have also dual character. They behave as a particle as well as wave. This means that an electron which has been regarded as a particle also behaves like a wave. The particle nature of an electron is explained by classical mechanics. For example, electron has a mass ~ 9.1 X10*-31 kg. But the classical mechanics fails to explain the wave nature of electron. The wave nature of electron is explained by quantum mechanics. Can you give more examples of wave behavior of electron in order to illustrate dual character of electron? Solution the wave nature of electron was explained by the experiments like Thompsons Experiment, in which G.P.Thompson allowed electron beam pass through a thin foil of gold and got caught on the photographic plate on whic he found the Diffraction pattern of electron beam just like x-ray, thus this experiment allows wave nature of electron..
