		His brother Maurice de Broglie was at that time carrying out experimental work on X-rays and this proved a considerable interest to de Broglie during the first few years of the 1920s during which he worked for his doctorate.
		The central question in de Broglie's life was whether the statistical nature of atomic physics reflects an ignorance of the underlying theory or whether statistics is all that can be known.
		De Broglie noted that relativity theory predicts that, when such a particle is set in motion, its total relativistic energy will increase, tending to infinity as the speed of light is approached.

		During the First World War (1914-18), De Broglie served with the radio telegraphy section in the Eiffel tower and stayed there another four years after the War, becoming an expert in practical electromagnetism.
		De Broglie proposed that the way electrons moved was in a wave: any wave that was confined within a nuclear charge would be restricted in shape and motion because when it came up against the boundaries set by the nucleus it would become distorted and be canceled out.
		De Broglie accepted a job as Professor of Theoretical Physics at the Sorbonne and lectured at the Henri Poincare Institute for the rest of his working life.
