Spectroscopy

This setup aims at the fundamental principle of spectroscopy which is to investigate the properties of materials using light. Here light is characterised based on its wavelength (λ), which is spread over a range of values across the electromagneticspectrum. This also provides us with direct knowledge of the energy of the photons at a particular wavelength. We can use this information to look the behaviour of atoms and molecules and their interaction withlight of a particular wavelength.
