1. Particle Model: Invented by Sir Isaac newton. He devised a simple particle model to explain the properties of light. He preferred to consider light as a stream of small particles or corpuscles. These particles were emitted in all directions by a light source, travelled in straight lines and carried energy. For example, in this model, the reflection of light was considered as being similar to a tennis ball rebounding from a wall with equal angles of incidence and reflection.

2. Wave Model: In 1690, the Dutch physicist Christiaan Huygens published his Treatise on Light which developed the idea that light, like sound, travelled as a wave through a medium called the ether.

Hope this helps :)

The Photon (corpuscular) model where photons or packets of light are dealt with as physical as discrete objects. The Wave model where the electromagnetic field is a medium in which waves can travel, some of which have dimensions that we also call Light.
