The Raman Effect describes changes in the wavelength of light. When a beam of light passes through a dust-free, transparent sample of a chemical compound, a small fraction of the light is deflected in directions other than the incident (incoming) beam.
Simply put, it is the change in the wavelength of light that occurs when light rays are deflected by molecules. This is sometimes referred to as the virtual state of the molecule.
