"Made of" may be a poor choice in wording. In Superstring Theory, elementary particles such as electrons, quarks, and their boson bretheren (force carrying particles) are actually vibrating 1 dimensional strings. We can only observe them as point particles because of the lack of technology to probe deeper. The strings vibrate with different energy and in different patterns, which give the particles their properties (ie mass, charge, spin). This is all theory though and depending on which theory your looking at, photons could be particles or strings or in field those rises light is comprised of waves.

Was feynman wrong in saying light is a particle?
Most likely not. Light is made up of photons, and even photons have mass..Thus light is a particle as particles are mass. But to confuse you, even though light = photons & photons = particle & particle = mass; the photons also act as a wave. Which is rather incredible, because it means that a mass also acts as a wave.
Is string natural or sythetic?
String can be made from natural or synthetic fibers.
Why are the photons that emerge from the Sun's surface visible-light photons and infrared-light photons rather than gamma-ray photons?
Photons do not come in different types like infared-photons etc. they are just the wavelength that the photons are at and nuclear fusion just happens to emit photons at a particular wavelength
What is the effect of absorbing photons of energy on ozone?
Photons are absorbed by ozone. These photons are of UV.
What is a fireball made up of?
Fire is a stream of photons emitted by the material that undergoes combustion. Color of the fire depends on the energy level of these photons. Small portion of burning material will be in plasma state.
What are gamma rays made up of?
Electromagnetic energy, photons.
White light is made of?
Though you can say light is made up of photons, the photons themselves are not matter, they are energy. Therefore light is actually energy. But you can still say light is made of photons.
Light is made of elementary particles called what?
Well, they're probably not really particles ... but they're called "photons".
How does light form?
It is made of photons.
How are photons made?
Photons are either created or absorbed when a electron makes a quantum leap inside an atom
Do photons have weight?
No, photons do not have weight. Photons are particles, made pure out of energy, which travel at the speed of sound.
What light is made up of .?
Light is pure energy in the form of what we call Photons.
Light is made up of?
Light is pure energy and made of Photons
What is cotton string made out of?
Cotton string is made from cotton.
What is made up of photons?
The photon is the force carrier of the Electro-magnetic spectrum hence any wave length in it is photons. From gamma rays to Radio waves all photons.
Who made the string family?
Mr. String
A sentence is made up of a string of?
A sentence is made up of a string of words.
