Raman shift depends on
Options
- Aincident wavelength
- Bincident intensity
- Cresolving power of the spectrograph used
- Dmolecular energy levels of the scatterer
Correct answer
A. incident wavelength
Step-by-step solution
Raman scattering is an inelastic scattering of a photon by molecules which are excited to higher vibrational or rotational energy level. Raman shift depends on the wavelength of incident radiation.
