Stimulated Raman spectroscopy of small molecules

Grant and Hardwick describe the use of a Nd:YAG laser to observe and analyze stimulated Raman scattering and coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering in neat organic liquids. Students are able to examine some details about the vibrational energy levels of the scattering molecules and gain insight into...

Description
Summary:Grant and Hardwick describe the use of a Nd:YAG laser to observe and analyze stimulated Raman scattering and coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering in neat organic liquids. Students are able to examine some details about the vibrational energy levels of the scattering molecules and gain insight into the special ways that a very intense radiation field can interact with a molecule.
