Raman Shift Converter calculator
Convert between excitation/emission wavelength and Raman shift in cm⁻¹.
Category: Spectroscopy
Formula: Δν̃ = 1/λex − 1/λem (cm⁻¹)
Inputs
| Input | Parameter | Unit | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| λ excitation | lex | nm | 532 |
| λ emission | lem | nm | 560 |
Result with the default inputs
- Raman shift: 939.8496 cm⁻¹
- Predicted λem: 560 nm
Open it with your own values: put each input in the address as a parameter, for example /calculators/raman-shift-converter?lex=532. A unit other than the listed one goes in <parameter>_unit.
