Abstract
Based on the quantum mechanics, we discussed the interaction between the photon and free electron. We found: 1.The interaction between the photon and free electron is handedness dependent; 2. Compared to the left handedness photon situation, the frequency of right handedness photon will shift to the more infrared side after its interaction with the free electron and 3.The contribution from the interaction between the magnetic moment of free electron and the magnetic vector of photon to the frequency shift is not handedness dependent.
