Louis de Broglie was a French physicist who contributed largely to quantum theory. He proposed in 1924 that electrons could behave as waves, and that these particles do not move in regular orbits..

l = h / mv
h = Planck's constant
mv = momentum of the massive particle.
l = de Brolgie wavelength
This leads to the concept of momentum of photon though photon does not have any mass. Its rest mass is zero.
