Product Description
The properties of light have puzzled scientists for centuries. Isaac Newton believed that light was composed of particles. Christiaan Huygens believed it travelled in the form of a wave. Even up to the early 20th century, scientists could not explain why light conformed to both particle and wave theory. It was not until 1924 that Louis de Broglie put forth the idea that both theories were necessary to explain the properties of light.
