WHAT DOES RAMAN EFFECT MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Raman scattering

Raman scattering or the Raman effect /ˈrɑːmən/ is the inelastic scattering of a photon. It was discovered by C. V. Raman and K. S. Krishnan in liquids, and by G. Landsberg and L. I. Mandelstam in crystals. The effect had been predicted theoretically by Adolf Smekal in 1923. When photons are scattered from an atom or molecule, most photons are elastically scattered, such that the scattered photons have the same energy as the incident photons. A small fraction of the scattered photons are scattered by an excitation, with the scattered photons having a frequency different from, and usually lower than, that of the incident photons. In a gas, Raman scattering can occur with a change in energy of a molecule due to a transition. Chemists are primarily concerned with the transitional Raman effect.

Definition of Raman effect in the English dictionary

The definition of Raman effect in the dictionary is a change in wavelength of light that is scattered by electrons within a material. The effect is used in Raman spectroscopy for studying molecules.
