👉 Conducted light particles refer to photons that travel through a material medium, such as a wire or fiber optic cable, rather than propagating through free space. These particles are generated when an electrical signal is applied to the material, causing electrons to move and release energy in the form of light. In this context, "conducted" means the light travels along a physical path within the medium, typically at speeds much slower than light in a vacuum but faster than in air or water. Conducted light is crucial in various applications, including telecommunications, where it enables the transmission of data over long distances through optical fibers. Unlike free-space light, which can be affected by atmospheric conditions and distance, conducted light offers more stable and secure communication channels, making it essential for modern data networks.
