However, they do have energy and momentum. The energy of a photon is given by Planck's constant times the frequency of the light, and the momentum of a photon is given by Planck's constant times ...

The momentum increase is so substantial, that it surpasses that of free-space photons by a factor of a thousand, making it comparable to the electron momenta in materials." ...

Photons carry energy and also momentum-- that momentum is what atomic physicists use to cool atoms with lasers-- and both of those things get transferred to the electron when it absorbs a photon.

The development of color routers (CRs) realizes modulation of photon momentum on the frequency and spatial domains. Scientists in China demonstrate an active manipulation of dichromatic photon ...
