The Davisson–Germer experiment was a 1923-1927 experiment by Clinton Davisson and Lester Germer at Western Electric (later Bell Labs),[1] in which electrons, scattered by the surface of a crystal of nickel metal, displayed a diffraction pattern. This confirmed the hypothesis, advanced by Louis de Broglie in 1924, of wave-particle duality, and was an experimental milestone in the creation of quantum mechanics.
