MCQ
Which crystal is used in the Davisson $–$ Germer experiment?
- AAluminum
- ✓Nickel
- CCobalt
- DZinc
✓
Answer
Correct option: B.
Nickel
The crystal used in the Davisson $–$ Germer experiment is nickel. A fine beam of electrons is made to fall on the surface of the nickel crystal. As a result, the electrons are scattered in all directions by the atoms of the crystal.
