according to de Broglie  moving body behave as though it has a wave nature (for 
small size particles only, like electron). these phenomenon can be shown in 
electron diffraction and electron interference. question is that wave requires a 
medium to move energy from one location to another. (like sound wave cannot pass 
through Vacuum). then can matter waves also require a medium to move or they are 
just like electromagnetic waves like light which does not require a medium?
