Abstract
Exploiting an open string which performs both rotational and pulsating motions, we investigate a photon intrinsic frequency. Explicitly evaluating the zero point fluctuation of the string which is delineated in terms of the quantum mechanical ground state energy in the vibrational mode of the string and the classical energy in the rotational mode, we find that the intrinsic frequency of the photon is given by and comparable to those of the baryons such as nucleon and delta baryon. Next, we calculate the photon size in a phenomenological stringy photon model.
