🔬 Davisson-Germer Electron Diffraction Simulation: Nickel Crystal, Bragg Peak and de Broglie Wavelength - 3D Vacuum Chamber

A virtual Davisson-Germer experiment: accelerate electrons to a chosen voltage, scatter them from a crystal surface, swing the detector round and find the diffraction peak where D sin(theta) = n lambda, proving that electrons behave as waves.
