Abstract

A photon may exhibit wave-particle duality if it consists of a packet of two photons of the same quantized energy and the same wavelength. One photon of the packet may alone exhibit the particlelike property, while both the photons of the packet may together exhibit the wavelike property through diffraction. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
