- In 1937, Clinton Davisson and George Paget Thomson shared a Nobel Prize "for their experimental discovery of the diffraction of electrons by crystals". An interesting fact is that J. J. Thomson, the father of G. P. Thomson, is credited for the discovery of electrons and received a Nobel Prize in 1906 "in recognition of the great merits of his theoretical and experimental investigations on the conduction of electricity by gases". He measured the electron’s charge to mass ratio showing that electrons are particles, while his son G. P. Thomson received a Nobel Prize for demonstrating that electrons can have wave properties.
