Wavenumber (cm^-1)<br />
Fig. 5 - 10 second spectrum <strong>of</strong> toluene gathered with spectrograph. The mercury calibration spectrum is superimposed.<br />
Fig. 6 - Actual raw image acquired by spectrograph.<br />
Fig. 7 - Molecular structure <strong>of</strong> toluene. The aromatic<br />
benzene ring associated with the band at 1004 cm^-1 is<br />
visible. the lines in the toluene spectrum above are due to<br />
the vibrational stretching <strong>of</strong> some <strong>of</strong> the bonds in toluene<br />
upon interaction with the laser beam.
