C. V. Raman, one of the greatest Indian (physicist), was born in 1888. His father was a lecturer in math and physics, so C. V. Raman (expose) to scientific things from early age. He attended Presidency College in 1902, (get) his BA in 1904. And later he got MA in 1907. he was a brilliant student, there weren' t many chances for scientists in India at that time. Therefore, after finishing his studies, he went (work) for the Indian Finance Department and carried out his experimental research on acoustics (声学).
He was (eventual) offered a professorship in physics at the University of Calcutta in 1917 and stayed for the next 15 years, achieving fame for his research there. In 1930, he (win) the Nobel Prize for his work on the scattering of light. Raman found when light passes a transparent (透明的) sample of a substance, most of the light remains unchanged but a small part of it has different wavelengths. This later is known as the Raman effect and is (use) for physical and chemical analysis of gases, liquids and solids, including biological tissue.
