✦ Synopsis

A new form of natural optical activity is identified on the basis of a general theory of natural Raman optical activity (ROA). This novel ROA phenomenon is predicted to occur as the difference in Raman-scattered intensity for pairs of linearly polarized measurements and depends on the real part of the product of the transition-polarizability and optical-activity tensors. This is the tint form of ROA to be identified that does not directly involve the use or measurement of circularly polarized radiation.

The theoretical description of dual circular polarization (DCP) Raman optical activity is presented. It is shown that for forward scattering, right-angle scattering and backward scattering, it is possible to measure a form of ROA in which both the incident and scattered circular polarizations are si

The first measurements of scattered circular polarization (SCP) Raman optical activity (ROA) are reported in which the degree of circular polarization of the scattered light is determined. The SCP ROA spectra are relatively simple to measure and confirm theoretical predictions of their relation to i

We show that the "... new form of natural optical activity" of Hecht and Nafie is a special case of scattering phenomena predicted by a very general theorem. In addition, the "...new form..." is closely related to its well known elastic cousin.

We report the first isolation of preresonance Raman scattering behavior in Raman optical activity (ROA) and the first measurement of out-of-phase dual circular polarization (DCPu) ROA. Using a series of molecules of increasing delocalized electronic structure, we observe a correlated increase in the
