A photon is a packet of electromagnetic radiation. A very small part of the spectrum of that radiation (wavelengths of around 400 to 750 nanometres) is detectable with our eyes and we call this light.

A new theory, that explains how light and matter interact at the quantum level has enabled researchers to define for the first time the precise shape of a single photon.

New CT technology allows for a comprehensive, simultaneous evaluation of lung structure and function, something not possible with standard CT, according to a new study.

Using a groundbreaking new technique, researchers have unveiled the first detailed image of a photon — a single particle of light — ever taken.

For the first time, researchers have observed how just one particle of light can trigger photosynthesis in bacteria — finally revealing the first step of the crucial process.

In addition to being an engagement and educational tool for students, Photon functions as a well-designed solution for classroom educators.
