Other Inorganics. Inorganic species in solution have been studied very effectively by Raman spectroscopy. Work in this area includes the investigation of coordination compounds (qv) of fluorine (qv) (40), the characterization of low dimensional materials (41) and coordinated ligands (42), and single-crystal studies (43). Several compilations of characteristic vibrational frequencies of main-group elements have been pubflshed to aid in the identification of these species (44,45).

Matrix Raman spectroscopy allows detection of some additional vibrations which are inactive in IR spectra (e.g. symmetrical vibrations vi in AB3 molecules having 3 symmetry) or which tie in the far infrared region. In practice, matrix-isolated organic intermediates have not been studied by Raman spectroscopy the main objects of these investigations are inorganic molecules (AICI3, PbS, Gep2, SiO, etc.) which are evaporated from solids in effusion cells. 

The historical development and elementary operating principles of lasers are briefly summarized. An overview of the characteristics and capabilities of various lasers is provided. Selected applications of lasers to spectroscopic and dynamical problems in chemistry, as well as the role of lasers as effectors of chemical reactivity, are discussed. Studies from these laboratories concerning time-resolved resonance Raman spectroscopy of electronically excited states of metal polypyridine complexes are presented, exemplifying applications of modern laser techniques to problems in inorganic chemistry.

Similarly to FTIR spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy is a versatile technique of analyzing both organic and inorganic materials that has experienced noticeable growth in the field of art and art conservation, in parallel to the improvement of the instrumentation [38]. In particular, the introduction of fiber optic devices has made feasible the development of mobile Raman equipments, enabling nondestructive in situ analyses [39]. On the other hand, the coupling of Raman spectroscopes with optical microscopes has given rise to Raman microscopy vide infra). 

For a more detailed discussion of the theoretical aspects of infrared and Raman spectroscopy, and additional applications of this technique to inorganic ring systems, the reader is referred to the book by Nakamoto. ...
