Experiment to measure frequency of de Broglie waves

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on experiments to directly measure the frequency of de Broglie waves. Participants highlight diffraction experiments as effective methods for measuring frequency and wavelength. Additionally, selective absorption experiments are mentioned as another viable approach for frequency measurement. These methods are crucial for understanding wave-particle duality in quantum mechanics.

Homework Statement


Somebody knows an experiment to measure directly frequency of de Broglie waves?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
yes there are several diffraction experiments which can measure the frequency/wavelength directly. by directly we mean events which is dependent on the frequency/wavelength of the waves.
or there can be selective absorption experment which can measure frequency.
