Photon:

A photon can be defined as quantum of energy. It is an elementary particle.

Elementary particle is a particle that does not have a substructure.

Elementary particles are the building blocks of the universe from which all other particles are made.

The photon is the quantum of electromagnetic radiation (e.g. radio, light,x-rays, gamma rays) or the basic unit of light.

Quantum :

Quantum can be described as measure of quantity.

Quantum is considered to be a discrete packet with energy stored in them.

A quantum is a unit in which waves are absorbed or emitted. Quanta are the smallest units of something allowed.

In short, its just a smallest, indivisible, discrete piece of anything.
