Answer:

de Broglie's wavelength.

Step-by-step explanation:

de Broglie's wavelength.

The de Broglie formula is the equation used only to explain the wave characteristics of matter, namely the wave existence of the electron:

λ = h / mv,

where λ is wavelength, h is Planck's constant, m is a particle's mass, traveling at a velocity v.

de Broglie proposed that matter particles can exhibit wave characteristics.
