Rotational spectroscopy
Spectroscopy in the microwave region is concerned with the study of
rotating molecules.

Energy levels are given by EJ = hBJ(J+1)
Ia = Ib & Ic = 0
B = /4 = h/82I
B (in Hz) is called the rotational constant

Raman Spectroscopy
..A Brief Introduction

Raman Spectroscopy
In 1928, Professor Sir C. V. Raman observed that wavelength of a
small fraction of radiation scattered by certain molecules differ from
that of the incident beam.

Raman Scattering
Raman Spectra was obtained by irradiating a sample with a
powerful laser source (NARROW FREQUENCY BAND) of
monochromatic radiation (either visible or infra red ).

Polarizibility:
Basis of Raman Spectroscopy
Molecular Polarizability refers to momentary distortion of the
electrons distributed around the bond. The induced dipole moment
generated on applying a static electric field as a result of separation
of positive nuclei and negative elelctrons makes a molecule polarized.
Induced dipole moment (Polarizability) can be generated in any
direction by varying the direction in which the electric field is applied.
