Wave property of electrons implies that they will show diffraction effects. Davission and Germer demonstrated this by diffracting electrons from crystals. The law governing the diffraction from a crystal is obtained by requiring that electron waves reflected from the planes of atoms in a crystal interfere constructively (see figure) In an experiment, electrons are made to pass through a narrow slit of width 'd' comparable to either de-Broglie wavelength. They are detected on a screen at a distance 'D' from the slit The following graphs that can be expected to represent the number of electrons 'N' detected as a function of the detector position 'y' (y=0 corresponds to the middle of the slit) is |
