Abstract

Spectroscopy is a powerful analytical technique used to study the interaction of matter with electromagnetic radiation. It involves measuring the absorption, emission, or scattering of radiation by a sample, which can provide information about its chemical composition, molecular structure, and physical properties. There are many different types of spectroscopy, each with its own strengths and limitations. For example, ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy is commonly used to study the electronic structure of molecules, while infrared (IR) spectroscopy is used to identify functional groups and chemical bonds. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is widely used in organic chemistry to determine the structure of molecules. Spectroscopy has many important applications in a variety of fields, including materials science, environmental monitoring, medical diagnostics, and astronomy. The development of new spectroscopic techniques and instrumentation is expected to continue to advance our understanding of the properties and behavior of matter at a molecular and atomic level.
