Definition • Spectroscopy- The study of the interaction of electromagnetic radiation with matter
Introduction to Spectroscopy • What to be discussed • Theoretical background of spectroscopy • Types of spectroscopy and their working principles in brief • Major components of common spectroscopic instruments • Applications in Chemistry related areas and some examples

Electromagnetic Radiation • Electromagnetic radiation (e.m.r.) • Electromagnetic radiation is a form of energy • Wave-particle duality of electromagnetic radiation • Wave nature - expressed in term of frequency, wave-length and velocity • Particle nature - expressed in terms of individual photon, discrete packet of energy when expressing energy carried by a photon, we need to know the its frequency
Definitions • E = energy (Joules, ergs) • c = speed of light (constant) • l = wavelength • h = Planck’s constant • n= “nu” = frequency (Hz) • nm = 10-9 m • Å = angstrom = 10-10 m
Electromagnetic Radiation • Characteristics of wave • Frequency, v- number of oscillations per unit time, unit: hertz (Hz) - cycle per second • velocity, c- the speed of propagation, for e.m.r c=2.9979 x 108 m×s-1 (in vacuum) • wave-length, l- the distance between adjacent crests of the wave wave number, v’, - the number of waves per unit distance v’ =l-1 • The energy carried by an e.m.r. or a photon is directly proportional to the frequency, i.e. where h is Planck’s constant h=6.626x10-34J×s
Key Formulae • E = hn • h = 6.626 x 10-34 J-s • n = frequency in Hz, E = energy • l = c/n • c = 3.0 x 108 m/s • l = wavelength, n = frequency in Hz
Molecular Absorption • The energy, E, associated with the molecular bands: Etotal = Eelectronic + Evibrational + Erotational • In general, a molecule may absorb energy in three ways: • By raising an electron (or electrons) to a higher energy level. • By increasing the vibration of the constituent nuclei. • By increasing the rotation of the molecule about the axis.
Absorption vs. Emission hn En En hn hn Eo Eo Absorption Emission
Rotational absorption Vibrational absorption
Type of EM Interactions • Absorption - EM energy transferred to absorbing molecule (transition from low energy to high energy state) • Emission - EM energy transferred from emitting molecule to space (transition from high energy to low energy state) • Scattering - redirection of light with no energy transfer
Type of electronic transitions: • Sigma () electrons: represent valence bonds They posses the lowest energy level (i.e. most stable) • pi () electrons: pi bonds (double bonds) They are higher energy than sigma electrons. • Non bonding () electrons: these are atomic orbital of hetero atom (N,O, halogen or S) which do not participate in bonding. They usually occupy the highest energy level of ground state.

Laws of light absorption absorption transmission refraction reflection scattering
Definitions • Io = intensity of light through blank • IT = intensity of light through sample • Absorption = Io - IT • Transmittance = IT/Io • Absorbance = log(Io/IT) Io IT

Absorption spectrum “Molecular” SPECTRUM
Chromophore: C=C, C=O, N=O…. • Auxchrome: e.g. -OH, NH2,-Cl … • Bathochromic shift (red shift): • the shift of absorption to a longer wavelength • Hypsochromic shift (blue shift): • the shift of absorption to a shorter wavelength • Hyperchromic effect: an increase in the absorption intensity. • Hypochromic effect; an decease in the absorption intensity
Effect of pH on absorption spectra: Phenol alkaline medium exhibits bathochromic shift and hyperchromic effect.
aniline acid medium shows hypsochromic shift and hypochromic effect

Cuvettes (sample holder) • plastic or glass for determination the sample in visible rang, • or quartz cell for determination the sample in UV. Cell usually take rectangular (cuvette)
Light detectortransducer • convert a signal photons into an easily measured electrical signal such as voltage or current • Transducer should have the: • High sensitive • Linear response • A fast response time • High stability
Light detectortransducer Types of Transducer: • 1. Barrier layer (photovoltaic cell) • 2. Phototube • 3. Photomulriplier
