The Nature of Light: Waves and Particles

Light doesn’t act like just a wave or a particle—it shows properties of both. This wave particle duality is a core idea in modern physics. From double-slit experiments to photon behaviour in solar panels, understanding light helps explain everything from rainbows to quantum theory.

Wave-Particle Duality: Exploring Light and Matter's Dual Nature​

This article explores the strange but true concept of wave-particle duality—where light and matter behave as both particles and waves. Learn how experiments like the double-slit experiment and the photoelectric effect revealed this dual nature, and find out how it affects everything from lasers to solar panels.
