Wave-particle duality, the revolutionary concept that particles can exhibit both wave-like and particle-like properties, was first proposed by Louis de Broglie. His equations connecting a particle's energy and momentum to the properties of its corresponding wave laid the groundwork for quantum mechanics. This fundamental principle explains the surprising results of the double-slit experiment and underlies many of quantum mechanics' unique behaviors.

This fundamental principle explains the surprising results of the double-slit experiment and underlies many of quantum mechanics' unique behaviors. In this work, relying solely on Einstein's two postulates of special relativity, and the idea that time is single valued, we will demonstrate that a complete theory of relativity predicts a wave-like quantizable behavior for particle trajectories. We will prove that the theory of relativity predicts a first-order, spin-independent transport equation as an equation of motion for particles, in addition to the classical relativistic Hamiltonian. As key results, we will demonstrate that our theory provides an integrable solution for a free scalar particle, offering insights into the wave-particle duality observed in nature. For spinor particles, we will show that our theory generalizes Weyl theory to accommodate massive particles, while also allowing for modified Dirac-like particles.

Wave-particle duality is widely regarded as one of the conceptual pillars of modern quantum theory, providing the framework through which the behavior of microscopic matter can be consistently interpreted. According to this principle, microscopic entities such as electrons, photons, atoms and even complex molecules exhibit both wave-like and particle-like properties depending on the experimental configuration used to observe them. This duality is quantitatively formalized through the De Broglie relation, which associates a wavelength with any particle possessing momentum. The present work provides a comprehensive theoretical analysis of the physical and mathematical foundations of wave-particle duality, focusing particularly on the De Broglie wavelength and the kinetic energy of the electron in both non-relativistic and relativistic regimes. The connection between the De Broglie hypothesis and Schrödinger’s equation is discussed in detail, highlighting the role of the kinetic energy operator and the interpretation of matter waves in terms of quantum wave packets. Experimental evidence supporting the wave nature of matter, including electron diffraction experiments and interferometry techniques, is also reviewed. Beyond their conceptual importance, these principles underpin several modern technologies, including electron microscopy, nanoscale semiconductor devices and quantum metrology. The analysis demonstrates that the De Broglie relation provides a unifying framework connecting momentum, wavelength and kinetic energy, thereby forming a fundamental bridge between classical mechanics, quantum theory and modern technological applications.
