This work proposes a geometric representation of quantum phase fields motivated by the long-standing tension between localized particle cores and dispersive wave propagation in quantum mechanics. Following the original insight of Louis de Broglie's phase harmony, the quantum phase is reinterpreted as a helical structure surrounding a localized core. The construction is developed using an inverse methodology: instead of deriving the structure dynamically from first principles, a candidate geometry is postulated and tested for internal consistency with the kinematic constraints of quantum mechanics. At the matching boundary defined by the Compton radius Rc = ħ/(mc), the phase field acquires a quantized azimuthal winding, forming a helical structure that connects the localized core with the extended navigation wave. Within this framework, the de Broglie wavelength λ = h/p emerges naturally as the geometric pitch of the helical phase surface. The analysis demonstrates that this helical configuration satisfies three essential requirements for a double-solution structure:topological phase quantization, velocity matching between wave and particle, and the correct decomposition of rest and kinetic energy. The work is presented as a proof-of-existence for a geometrically consistent phase structure that could support a localized vortex-like particle guided by a continuous phase field. It forms part of a broader research program exploring the mechanical and topological origins of quantum phenomena.
