Google, the search giant, has featured Sir C. V. Raman, the Nobel
laureate physicist on its Doodle feature on Thursday to celebrate his
birthday that falls on November 7,2013
Sir Chandrasekhara Venkata Raman (Nov 07, 1888 – Nov 21, 1970)was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1930 for his work on the
scattering of light, ‘Raman Effect’ - that when light traverses a
transparent material, some of the deflected light changes in wave
length. This effect has been depicted in the doodle as a graphic.
