About this episode
The episode discusses Louis de Broglie's contributions to quantum mechanics and the concept of wave-particle duality in relation to electrons.
Why do electrons have fixed orbits? Niels Bohr couldn’t explain. Louis de Broglie came to the rescue. His doctoral paper won him the Nobel Prize, which was excellent, except for the fact that it started the World War of particle or wave again. 前往小宇宙评论区与主播互动
