Solution

Davisson and Germer experiment:

  1. Davisson and Germer experiment proves the matter waves concept
  2. Davisson and Germer Experiment, for the first time, proved the wave nature of electrons and verified the de Broglie equation.
  3. De Broglie proposed the double nature of the matter in 1924, but it wasn't until later that experiment confirmed the findings.
  4. The findings provided the first experimental verification of quantum mechanics. Throughout this experiment, we would investigate electron scattering by a Ni crystal.

Therefore, the Davisson and Germer experiment shows good agreement between the experimental as well as theoretical values of electron's wave nature
