What is the Raman Effect?
The Raman Effect was discovered by Sir C.V. Raman in 1928. It refers to the phenomenon where, when light scattered by molecules undergoes a change in frequency and results in the scattering of light at different wavelengths. This effect is used in spectroscopy to analyze the vibrational and rotational modes of molecules. This helps in various scientific and industrial applications.
