  2. History. First page of Molecular Diffraction of Light (1922) The elastic light scattering phenomena called Rayleigh scattering, in which light retains its energy, was described in the 19th century. The intensity of Rayleigh scattering is about 10 −3 to 10 −4 compared to the intensity of the exciting source. [2] .

  3. Raman spectroscopy (/ ˈrɑːmən /) (named after physicist C. V. Raman) is a spectroscopic technique typically used to determine vibrational modes of molecules, although rotational and other low-frequency modes of systems may also be observed. [ 1 ] .

  4. At this institute, Sir C. V. Raman discovered in 1928 that when a beam of coloured light entered a liquid, a fraction of the light scattered by that liquid was of a different color. Raman showed that the nature of this scattered light was dependent on the type of sample present.

  5. Jan 30, 2023 · The phenomenon of Raman scattering of light was first postulated by Smekai in 1923 and first observed experimentally in 1928 by Raman and Krishnan.

  6. Oct 24, 2022 · In elastic scattering, a photon is first absorbed by a particle and then emitted without a change in its energy (\(\Delta E = 0\)); this is called Rayleigh scattering. With inelastic scattering, a photon is first absorbed by a particle and then emitted with a change in its energy (\(\Delta E \ne 0\)); this is called Raman scattering.

  7. Aug 9, 2024 · Raman effect, change in the wavelength of light that occurs when a light beam is deflected by molecules. The phenomenon is named for Indian physicist Sir Chandrasekhara Venkata Raman, who first published observations of the effect in 1928.

  8. Mar 2, 2018 · The observed yellow-green light was the first proof of the existence of modified light: “inelastically scattered light by molecules,” later called Raman scattered light. Raman and Krishnan provided evidence of scattered light from 60 common liquid samples.
