Researchers have shown that two photons, seen here as waves (right and left), can connect a short distance apart. Under certain conditions, these photons can create a state similar to a diatomic molecule, a state shown by the shape of the blue dumbbell in the center of the movement. Figure: NIST

Is it possible to make molecules composed of light?
