Part 7/9:
How do we interpret light in the context of these findings? The double slit experiment performed with light typically reinforces its wave nature. When light intensity is reduced to allow for single photon passage, individual photons can still create an interference pattern rather than behaving strictly as particles.
This leads to the conclusion that both light and electrons—though traditionally considered in separate categories of waves versus particles—actually exhibit analogous behavior. Each arrives in quantized packets that retain a singular size and energy but exist in a wave state until measurements collapse them into localized entities.
