Microwave spectroscopy is proving in recent years a great
asset in the study of various problems in physics, chemistry, electronics and
even astronomy. Microwave spectroscopy has been found to be very useful in the
determination of the structures of those molecules which do not give good
results by using Raman and infrared spectroscopy. The microwave spectroscopy explores the part
of the electromagnetic spectrum which is extending from 100 µm (3 x 1013 Hz) to
1 cm (3 x 1010 Hz). The absorption spectrum in the microwave region is
characteristic of the absorbing molecule as a whole, whereas spectrum in the
infrared region is characteristic of the functional groups present in the
absorbing molecule. Microwave spectrum shows better resolution of the lines
than infrared method and many more.
Let us learn about Microwave spectroscopy in the given video
lecture.
