Louis de Broglie was a physicist from France famous for his significant contributions to quantum theory. In his 1924 doctoral thesis, he proposed the wave nature of electrons, suggesting that all matter displays wave characteristics, known as the de Broglie hypothesis. This idea was pivotal in the advancement of quantum mechanics and influenced Schrödinger’s wave mechanics formulation. Additionally, de Broglie played a key role in the development of CERN, promoting the establishment of an international laboratory.
