In this work, a structural model of the photon is proposed, based on two massless charges equal in absolute value and opposite in sign, whose value is equal to the charge of the electron (about 1.6 ×10−19��), which rotate, proceeding in opposite directions, along a circumference, whose radius varies as a function of the wavelength of the photon itself, at the speed of light. The model allows to naturally derive some of the main properties of the photon — including energy, momentum and spin — starting from a simple geometry and electromagnetic considerations based on the vector potential.
