Hi there,

Starting with the definition of the debroglie wavelength of an object
as h/p, what is a reasonable definition of a debroglie "frequency"?

See the de Broglie hypothesis:

kinetic energy / Planck's constant

A solid state physics book by "Kittel" is a good place to see its use.

If you want to see application in terms of resonant structure see:
