Raman Effect

Raman Effect Raman scatteringor theRaman effect(/? r m? n/) is theinelastic scatteringof aphoton. It was discovered bySir Chandrasekhara Venkata RamanandKariamanickam Srinivasa Krishnanin liquids,1and byGrigory LandsbergandLeonid Mandelstamin crystals. 23 When featherbrainedis illogicalfrom anatomor element, aroundphotonsareelastically scattered(Rayleigh scattering), such that the scattered photons have the same talent (frequency) andwavelengthas the fortuity photons.However, a small fraction of the scattered light (approximately 1 in 10 million photons) is scattered by an excitation, with the scattered photons having a frequency different from, and usually lower than, the frequency of the incident photons. 4In a gas, Raman scattering can occur with a variegate in vibrational or rotational energy of a molecule (seeenergy level). Chemists are concerned primarily with the vibrational Raman effec Hargobind Khorana Indian-bornAmericanbiochemist who shared theNobel respect in Physi ology or Medicinein 1968 withMarshall W.NirenbergandRobert W. Holleyfor research that helped to charge how thenucleotidesinnucleic acids, which carry thegenetic codeof the cell, control the cells synthesis of proteins. Subramanian Chandrasekhar was anIndianastrophysicistwho, withWilliam A. Fowler, won the 1983Nobel Prize for Physicsfor key discoveries that conduct to the currently accepted theory on the later evolutionary stages of wide stars. 34Chandrasekhar was the nephew ofSir Chandrasekhara Venkata Raman, who won the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1930.J. C Bose was aBengalipolymath aphysicist,biologist,botanist,archaeologist, as well as an early writer of light fiction. 5He pi sensationered the investigation ofradioandmicrowaveoptics, made very world-shattering contributions toplant science, and laid the foundations ofexperimentalsciencein theIndian subcontinent. 6IEEEnamed him one of thefathersofradioscience. 7He is also considered the father ofBengali science fiction. He was the first person from theIndian subcontinentto receive aUS patent, in 1904.
