文摘The wave-particle duality of light and matter is a cornerstone of quantum mechanics,tracing back to Einstein’s explanation of the photoelectric effect through the concept of photons and de Broglie’s matter wave hypothesis.Unlike classical physics,where objects are distinctly either particles or waves,quantum objects such as light and matter,can exhibit both wave-like and particle-like behavior,depending on the experimental setup.
