Louis-Victor de Broglie

Louis Victor Pierre Raymond, duc de Broglie (August 15, 1892 - March 19, 1987) was a French physicist. De Broglie had a mind of a theoretician than that of an experimenter or engineer. De Broglie was a Fellow of the Royal Society of London

De Broglie's 1924 doctoral thesis Recherches sur la théorie des quanta (tr. "Researches on the quantum theory") introduced his theory of electron waves. This included the particle-wave property duality theory of matter, based on the work of Einstein and Planck .

He won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1929 for his discovery of the wave nature of electrons, known as the de Broglie hypothesis.
