Newton argued that light were composed of corpuscles, or particles, which much later led to the quantum properties of matter. He was one of the earliest thinkers in modern science to suggest an "atomic" nature of matter, even though early Greeks did also suggest that.

Ironically, while chemists by the late 18th century was coming around to the idea of atoms, physicists were leaning towards a wave view of light, culminating in Maxwell's electromagnetic wave equations. Not until the end of the 19th century did physicists realize that it wasn't as simple as that.
