Sir Chandrasekhara Venkata Raman FRS was an Indian physicist known for his work in the field of light scattering. Using a spectrograph that he developed, he and his student K. S. Krishnan discovered that when light traverses a transparent material, the deflected light changes its wavelength and frequency.
The BMCC Science Department has a WiTec alpha 300R Confocal Raman Microscope with three lasers. Biological, forensic and nano-technological applications are some of the many research opportunities available in Raman Spectroscopy here at BMCC.
Come to the laboratory (room N-786) and see a demonstration of the versatility of Raman Spectroscopy.
Plus, refreshments including ramen noodles will be available.
