Photon emission. Computer artwork of an atom emitting photons (yellow). The atom consists of a nucleus (red),which contains neutrons and protons and a shell of electrons (blue). As an atom absorbs energy and becomes excited the electrons move further from the nucleus to higher energy orbits. Eventually the electrons will release this extra energy,as a photon,and return to their ground state | |
