Raman effect is a concept proved by dr.C.V.Raman. this concept tells that when we see a sea we can see blue colour of it but if we take some of the of sea water in our hand we can see that the colour of water is transparent. This happens because the blue colour of sky scatters more and it's reflection falls on sea water that is called raman effect.
Raman was a great scientist who proved the concept of Raman effect.
It is a phenomenon in which change in the wavelength of light occurs when a beam of light is deflected by molecules. When a beam of light travels from a dust-free transparent sample of a chemical compound, then a small fraction of the light emerges in the direction other than that of the incident light. Most of the scattered light wavelength is unchanged and in small part, if the wavelength is different from that of incident light it is due to Raman Effect.
Awards which were won by CV Raman are:
Fellow of the Royal Society (1924), Knight Bachelor (1929), Nobel Prize in Physics (1930), Bharat Ratna (1954), Lenin Peace Prize (1957) and Fellow of the Royal Society (1924).
