The Raman Spectroscopy based on the Raman Effect, is a technique used to observe vibrational, rotational modes in a system. This actually happened during a voyage to Europe in 1921, when he noticed the very blue color of Mediterranean Sea. “C.V. Raman was the first to recognize and demonstrate that the energy of photon can undergo partial transformation within matter. I still recall vividly the deep impression that this discovery made on all of us….”- Albert Einstein Along with Suri Bhagavantam, Raman discovered Quantum Photo Spin in 1932, later worked on accoustics of musical instruments. He was one of the first to investigate harmonic nature of the sound in the tabla and mridangam. | ||

CV Raman did his research primarily on accoustics, studying many musical instruments like tabla, mridangam, violin. He published a monograph on the violin titled “On the Mechanical Theory of Vibrations of Musical Instruments of the Violin Family”. In 1917, CV Raman was invited by Ashutosh Mukherjee, then VC of Kolkata University, to join as a Palit Professor of Physics in the newly established Science College. He happily accepted the offer, even though it was less than what he was getting in the Government service. Though his position did not entail any teaching and was primarily research oriented, Raman being a born teacher, taught in the Science classes. The by now famous Raman Scattering effect was discovered by him in 1928, along with another scientist K.S.Krishnan. | ||

Raman studied for some time in Vishakapatnam at the St.Aloysius High School , where his father was mathematics lecturer at the AVN College here. In 1903 he joined the prestigious Presidency College in Chennai, where he topped both the BA and MA exams. Inspite of his brilliance in science, Raman was not encouraged to take up science as a career, and on his father’s insistence took the Financial Civil Services exam. He stood first and joined as an Assistant Accountant General at Kolkata in 1907, in the Indian Finance Department. | ||

Chandrashekhar Venkata Raman, or C.V.Raman was also the first Asian to get the Nobel Prize in Science, for his Raman Effect, which experimentally demonstrated that the light-quanta and molecules do exchange energy which manifests itself as a change in the colour. And it was not just physics, he published around 475 papers on topics ranging from astronomy to metereology to physiology. Raman's work on the mridangam, bought to light the accoustical knowledge possesed in ancient India. | ||

Ratnakar Sadasyula ‏ @GabbarSanghi Follow Follow @GabbarSanghi More Today is the punyathithi of C.V.Raman, one of the greatest Indian scientists of the modern era. The first Indian to win a Nobel in Science, and the only Indian citizen too. A genius who was more than a mere scientist, a brilliant thinker and one of the greats of modern India. |
