There is unlikely to be a successor to a quantum theory of light, by the definition that the quantum theory of light is that "Light is made up of discernible particles", has very strong evidence to support it, and no alternative explanation has yet been found to explain such effects as the photoelectric effect.If you mean quantum electrodynamics, the section of the standard model of particle physics that explains light, electricity and magnetism, and therefore the standard model of particle interaction, then the only answer is that absolutely nobody knows. In fact, finding a successor to the standard model, which despite being one of the best theories ever developed is full of more holes than the titanic if taken as a theory of everything, is one of the biggest deals in all of science.One possible successor to the theory of quantum electrodynamics is the section of superstring theory that explains electromagnetism, but there are many who don't think string theory will be the answer to physics' problems, and certainly string theorists have yet to find any strong evidence supporting their theories.

Chemistry is a subset of physics. Physics is a general term that can be applied to astronomy, particle physics, aerodynamics, quantum electrodynamics, electricity, etc. whereas chemistry is the more definitive study of the behaviour of atoms and molecules and their separate uses.
The modern atomic model is based on quantum mechanics.
Yes, "QED" is a commonly used abbreviation for quantum electrodynamics.

Richard Feynman was a quantum physicist. He worked in the theory of electrodynamics and he helped shape physics as it is known today. Today, physicists look back at him in admiration.

Richard Feynman was an American theoretical physicist. He was most known for his work in the path integral formulation of quantum mechanics, the theory of quantum electrodynamics, and the physics of the superfluidity of supercooled liquid helium.

One of his main discoveries was Quantum Electrodynamics. However, sadly one of his main inventions was the atomic bomb during World War II.
methods for electromagnetic fields, particles and interactions. The aim has been to write a book that can serve both as an advanced text in Classical Electrodynamics and as a preparation for studies in Quantum Electrodynamics and related subjects. In an attempt to encourage participation by other scientists and students in the authoring of
