This radiation shows wavelike behavior, which can be characterized by a frequency, ν, and a wavelength, λ, such that c = λν. Light is an example of a travelling wave. Other important wave phenomena include standing waves, periodic oscillations, and vibrations. Standing waves exhibit quantization, since their wavelengths are limited to discrete integer multiples of some characteristic lengths.

His theory, originally met with skepticism, gained endorsement from Einstein and introduced the concept of the de Broglie wavelength.

It contrasts quantum mechanics with classical mechanics, focusing on discrete energy changes (quanta) and the fundamental uncertainty in electron positioning, which is addressed through probabilities. Prominent physicists like Niels Bohr and Richard Feynman stressed the baffling aspects of quantum theory, emphasizing its challenge to traditional concepts in physics.
