The video tutorial explains the concept of De Broglie wavelength, demonstrating calculations for different particles like a ball and an electron. It covers the derivation of the De Broglie equation and discusses wave-particle duality, highlighting how matter can exhibit both wave-like and particle-like properties. The tutorial also explains the diffraction pattern of electrons and the significance of wave-like behavior in small particles.
