Chapter 247 Important new results of wave-particle duality?(2/2)
"Wave-particle unified theory..."
Suddenly, Lin Xiao remembered a paper he had seen.
"It seems that I saw a photo taken by a school in Switzerland before. A beam of light showed both wave properties and particle properties?"
He immediately turned on the computer and started searching for the paper.
It didn't take long for him to find it without any effort.
The paper comes from an experiment designed and completed by the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne in Switzerland in 2015, and was published in Nature Communications.
Looking at this paper, Lin Xiao's eyes suddenly lit up.
This is it!
Wave nature and particle nature are inseparable, and by observing the wave-particle nature of electromagnetic waves at the same time, it will play a very important role in his understanding of the coherent superposition process of waves!
The more he looked at it, the more complete the model he built in his mind became.
Some details were lacking, and because of this experiment, he was once again provided with some material.
After all, whether it is more volatile or more particle-like, they both exist at the same time!
"It seems that I have something to convince those people at next week's meeting."
Thinking of this, Lin Xiao smiled on his face.
"However, I have to reproduce this experiment again, well, preferably in more detail."
He looked at the experimental process: a laser pulse was emitted to illuminate a tiny metal nanowire. The laser added energy to the charged particles on the nanowire, causing them to vibrate. The light traveled along this tiny nanowire in two possible ways.
Directional propagation, just like vehicles on the highway. When waves propagate in opposite directions and collide with each other, a new wave will be formed, and this wave will become a new light source, radiating around the nanowire.
"Well, it's a very clever experiment, but it can still be modified."
Lin Xiao smiled slightly and began to contact the researchers in the laboratory to prepare for experiments.
