Clinton Davisson (1881–1958) was an American experimental physicist known for his significant contributions to the field of quantum mechanics. He is best known for the Davisson-Germer experiment, which he co-conducted in 1927 with Lester Germer. This experiment was pivotal in demonstrating the wave-like behavior of electrons, providing strong evidence for the wave-particle duality concept of matter, as predicted by quantum theory.
