21 The American Physical Society looks back to this expt. LANDMARKS: ELECTRONS ACT LIKE WAVES APS has put the entire Physical Review archive online, back to Focus Landmarks feature important papers from the archive. A 1927 paper in the Physical Review demonstrated that particles of matter can act like waves, just as light waves sometimes behave like particles. Clinton Davisson and Lester Germer of the Bell Telephone Laboratories in New Jersey found that electrons scatter from a crystal in the same way that x rays do. The work began as a result of a laboratory accident and ultimately earned Davisson a Nobel Prize. (C. Davisson and L. H. Germer, Phys. Rev. 30, 705) Link to the paper: COMPLETE Focus story at

25 Don t know where individual bright spots will appear, but know probability, proportional to light wave intensity Wave 2 = 2, and finally, with many individual photon events, see detailed image.

26 Interference of electrons with a double slit Just like light on film, with final intensity Wave 2 = 2 But how do we calculate the function of the wave = wave function?
