Refraction of a single photon
« on: 29/09/2004 09:34:36 »
Hello everybody myself Ashok sharma, Technology student at NIT JSR, INDIA.

I want to start a new discussion on the gometrical optics.
Every body has heard of refraction through surfaces when light changes medium. Now consider a single photon then what If that single photton of light changed mediums, would it refract or change direction? Please think on it.
Thanking you.
