Raman effect

subject fact

Raman effect has definition In spectroscopy, the change in the wavelength of light scattered by molecules. has source: Abbot, D. 1984 Astronomers, Peter Bedrick Books, New York, 2001-09-27 09:29:50.0
has definition The change of wavelength on scattering. It arises from radiation exciting (or de-exciting) atoms or molecules from their initial states. has source: Hopkins, J. 1976 Glossary of Astronomy and Astrophysics, University of Chicago Press, 2001-09-27 09:29:50.0
