A New Theory on the Essence of Single-Slit and Double-Slit Patterns: Photon Tremor Collision Scattering Theory
Jiaqing Yan
Traditional quantum mechanics uses wave-particle duality to explain single-slit diffraction and double-slit interference phenomena, claiming that photons exhibit both particle and wave properties and can form light and dark patterns through self-interference. This theory violates objective physical logic. This paper proposes a new theory: photons always maintain uniform linear motion, accompanied by 360° omnidirectional, random, and uncontrollable microscopic tremor. The patterns in single-slit and double-slit experiments are macroscopic phenomena formed by collision, reflection, and angular deflection of photons with slit walls due to their tremor, followed by geometric amplification and statistical superposition of a large number of photon trajectories, having no connection with light wave interference or diffraction. This paper designs a carbon nanotube light-absorbing/non-absorbing control experiment and a receiving plate distance variable auxiliary experiment. Both experiments can quantitatively verify the theory, forming a complete logical closed loop and completely overthrowing the traditional interpretation of wave-particle duality.
