{wiki=Davisson–Germer_experiment}
The Davisson-Germer experiment, conducted in the 1920s by Clinton Davisson and Lester Germer, is a pivotal experiment in the field of quantum mechanics. Its primary significance lies in its demonstration of the wave-like behavior of electrons, providing strong evidence for the wave-particle duality concept. \#\#\# Background In the early 20th century, particles such as photons and electrons were understood mainly as having particle-like characteristics.
