def de_broglie_wavelength(momentum: float, in_ev: bool = False) -> str:
    """
    Calculates the de Broglie wavelength of a particle using the given momentum.

    Parameters:
        momentum (float): Momentum of the particle.
        in_ev (bool, optional): True if momentum is in eV·s.
                                If False, momentum is in kg·m/s.

    Returns:
        str: The calculated de Broglie wavelength of the particle in meters,
        formatted in scientific notation.

    Raises:
        ValueError: If the momentum is zero or negative.

    Usage example:
    >>> de_broglie_wavelength(1e-24)
    '6.62607015e-10'
    >>> de_broglie_wavelength(1e-24, True)
    '4.13566770e+09'
    >>> de_broglie_wavelength(0)
    Traceback (most recent call last):
        ...
    ValueError: Momentum can't be zero or negative.
    >>> de_broglie_wavelength(-1e-24)
    Traceback (most recent call last):
        ...
    ValueError: Momentum can't be zero or negative.
    >>> de_broglie_wavelength(5e-20)
