One of the biggest puzzles is the problem of how light in classical physics can be a wave, while in quantum physics it is in the form of photons or particles. The light ray is a wave but the energy transmits matter in the form of photons. Thus, it can also be assumed that any other particle, for example a moving electron, can be a wave of matter. The existence of matter waves was confirmed in 1927. Also in 1927 the uncertainty principle was formulated, stating that it is impossible to measure the position and momentum of a particle with unlimited accuracy. The issues considered are related to the problem of wave-particle duality.
Wave-particle duality, the property of matter, for example electrons, in that in some conditions the wave character is manifested, and in others corpuscular character. Wave properties are revealed by diffraction and interference phenomena. Classical physics could not explain, for example, the photoelectric phenomenon, the adoption of the concept of a discrete radiation structure enabled solving this difficulty. Electron diffraction has shown that molecules have wave properties in addition to their corpuscular properties. Current theory assumes that all molecules have both wave and corpuscular character. This fact has been checked not only for elementary particles but also for composite particles such as atoms. Recognition of the dual nature of matter is the basis of modern physics.
So far, considered duality remains a mystery, this is my explanation of this enigma. The problem of wave-particle duality is in fact a problem of ternarism, where the third state are fields. At the explanation of this problem it is possible to invoke phenomenon of three states of concentration of the matter, the solid state, liquid and gas. This phenomenon determines the model for the problem of ternarism in the microworld. Three states of concentration of the matter it is possible to implement by the fourth state which is the vacuum. Contractual condensation of the vacuum gives the highest state of concentration, gas. The further condensation gives the liquid state of concentration, still further the solid state of concentration. These considerations make for the conclusion that the base for three states of the microworld is the vacuum. Thus do not exist particles, nor waves nor fields but the vacuum. On the ground of STM (see paragraph 1) we can reach similar explanation where particles, waves and fields can be brought to the space.

@pragmatical45,

The actual solution to the wave/particle duality of light is that its NOT a particle OR a wave.
Light is not made up of little bullet like particles, nor is it an wave action in some medium, which is the only way you can have a wave.
You cant just have a wave action in nothing, a vacuum, space. So as light has no issues permeating space, its not a wave action we see in water or sound waves in air.

So, as Light cant be either a Particle or a Wave, what is it? Or more correctly HOW does the energy we see as light and the energy we cant see as radiation, manage to cross distances? Well its interesting to note that radiation, which is claimed to be part of the electromagnetic spectrum just like visible light, fizzles out over a relatively short distance. But seems that we can observer stars light from millions of light years away, no problem.
So rationally, we have something wrong somewhere with our theories of radiation, and light and Electromagnetism.
Light, it seems is NOT part of any Electromagnetic spectrum, nor is radiation.
Sure we can create radiation and light with Electricity, and or Magnetism, but does that really mean that the created Light or radiation is COMPOSED of the forces we used to create it?
We can also create radiation and Light by rubbing two dry sticks together, no Magnetism or Electricity required to make Light and radiant energy.

Light and radiation may have a pulsating rate, a frequency, but it may very well be that its an alternating but static pulsation, so that light actually never actually "travels" anywhere. It pulsates in alternate stationary spheres (assuming it is allowed to radiate in all directions) and those spheres obey the inverse square rule for illumination. The effect drops away with distance.
The bit that hard to explain is why we still can see those distant stars. The emitted light should not be visible at the distances claimed.
I don't now, it's just that something seems not very correct with the current explanations. And I'm pondering alternatives.
