ABOUT C V RAMAN in 10 points please
Answers
Raman quit his government service; he was appointed the first Palit Professor of Physics at the University of Calcutta in 1917
While he was teaching at the University of Calcutta, Raman continued his research at the Indian Association for the Cultivation of Science (IACS) in Calcutta. He later became an honorary scholar at the association
At the IACS, Raman did a ground-breaking experiment that eventually earned him the Nobel Prize in Physics on February 28 in 1928. He discovered the evidence of the quantum nature of light by observing the scattering of light, an effect that came to be known as the Raman Effect. The day is celebrated as National Science Day in India
Not known by many, Raman had a collaborator in this experiment. K S Krishnan, Raman's co-worker, did not share the Nobel Prize due to some professional differences between the two. However, Raman strongly mentioned Krishnan's contributions in his Nobel acceptance speech
Discoverer of atomic nucleus and proton, Dr Ernest Rutherford referred to Raman's spectroscopy in his presidential address to the Royal Society in 1929. Raman was acknowledged by the society and he was also presented with a knighthood
Raman had been hoping for a Nobel Prize since 1928. After two years of wait, he bagged the award "for his work on the scattering of light and for the discovery of the Raman Effect". He was so eager that he had booked tickets to Sweden in July to receive the award in November
Raman was the first Asian and non-white individual to win a Nobel Prize in science
In 1932, Raman and Suri Bhagavantam discovered the quantum photon spin. This discovery further proved the quantum nature of light
When asked about his inspiration behind the Nobel Prize-winning optical theory, Raman said he was inspired by the "wonderful blue opalescence of the Mediterranean Sea" while he was going to Europe in 1921
Raman was not only an expert on light, he also experimented with acoustics. Raman was the first person to investigate the harmonic nature of the sound of Indian drums such as tabla and mridangam.
➡ He discovered that, when light traverses a transparent material, some of the deflected light changes in wavelength.
➡ This phenomenon is now called Raman scattering and is the result of the Raman effect.
➡ In 1954, he was honored with the highest civilian award in India, the Bharat Ratna.
➡ Sir Chandrasekhara Venkata Raman (/ˈrɑːmən/; 7 November 1888 – 21 November 1970) was an Indian physicist born in the former Madras Province in India presently the state of Tamil Nadu.
➡ Who carried out ground-breaking work in the field of light scattering, which earned him the 1930 Nobel Prize for Physics.
➡ The Nobel Prize in Physics 1930 was awarded to Sir Chandrasekhara Venkata Raman "for his work on the scattering of light and for the discovery of the effect named after him."
➡ Raman effect, change in the wavelength of light that occurs when a light beam is deflected by molecules.
➡ Most of this scattered light is of unchanged wavelength.
➡ A small part, however, has wavelengths different from that of the incident light; its presence is a result of the Raman effect.
➡ In India—he died November 21, 1970, Bangalore), Indian physicist whose work was influential in the growth of science in India.
