On the notion of the photon

Abstract

It is shown that the photon, the quantum of electromagnetic field, allows the consideration in the framework of the scheme which in some aspects is typical for the phonon, an excitation of the crystal lattice of a solid. The conclusion is drawn that the photon may be interpreted as an elementary excitation in a fine-grained space. The corollary is in excellent agreement with the space structure and submicroscopic quantum mechanics, which have recently been constructed by the author in a series of works.
