Feb 28, 2024 · Dr. Chandrasekhara Venkata Raman or C.V Raman was known for his discovery Raman Effect and received Nobel Prize in 1930. He became the first Indian to receive Nobel Prize in Physics.

Sir Chandrasekhara Venkata Raman was an Indian physicist famous for contributions to the physics of light for which he won the Nobel prize in physics in 1930 for his discovery of the Raman effect...

C. V. Raman discovered that when light interacts with a molecule the light can donate a small amount of energy to the molecule. As a result of this, the light changes its color and the molecule vibrates. The change of color can act as a ‘fingerprint’ for the molecule. Raman spectroscopy relies on these fingerprints.

C. V. Raman is the uncle of three world renowned physicists: Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar Nobel laureate; Sivaramakrishna Chandrasekhar FRS, known for Liquid crystal research; and Sivaraj Ramaseshan, former director of the Indian Institute of Science.

Jul 26, 2023 · Nobel Laureate and Honorary Member Chandrasekhara Venkata Raman was born in 1888 in southern India. He received a B.S. in 1904 and an M.S. in 1907 from Presidency College, Madras. Because scientific research was almost completely neglected in India, Raman did not begin his career in physics.
