By
Dr. Mehboob Peeran
Spectroscopy is the study of interaction of electromagnetic radiation (radiant energy) with matter.
When radiant energy is incident on matter transitions such as electronic, vibrational, rotational, and translational, take place in the molecules of the substance. By monitoring these changes it is possible to derive valuable information regarding the structure of molecules (qualitative analysis) and also their concentration (quantitative analysis).

Spectroscopy is classified into various branches depending on the type of the radiant energy employed. For instance,
