Wave-particle duality is a fundamental principle in quantum mechanics that describes the dual nature of particles, which exhibit both wave-like and particle-like properties depending on the experimental context. According to this concept, particles such as electrons and photons can exhibit behaviors characteristic of waves, such as interference and diffraction, as well as behaviors characteristic of particles, such as localized position and momentum. Wave-particle duality challenges classical notions of particle behavior and is a cornerstone of quantum theory.
