  • What are Photons? Understanding the Nature of Light
    Tiny particle-like bundles of radiation are called photons.

    Photons are the fundamental unit of light and all other forms of electromagnetic radiation. They have no mass, but they do carry energy and momentum.

    While often described as particles, photons also exhibit wave-like behavior, as demonstrated by phenomena like diffraction and interference. This duality of nature is a fundamental concept in quantum mechanics.
