Spectroscopy is the study of the interaction between electromagnetic radiation and matter. There are several types of spectroscopy that are classified based on the type of radiation used, including infrared, UV-visible, NMR, and emission spectroscopy. The basic principle of spectroscopy techniques is to shine radiation on a sample and observe how it responds, which can provide information about the sample's structure and properties. Spectroscopy has many applications in chemistry and other fields such as identifying unknown compounds, determining concentrations, and studying molecular structures.
