Summary
The paper discusses the experimental techniques with regard to the recording of the Raman spectra of polycrystalline solids. The present studies on the typical cases of polycrystalline gypsum, and calcite in the form of a finely divided powder show that the Rasetti technique can be successfully employed to obtain clear spectra of such substances and also indicate the scope for further improvements in the techniques. It emerges that the polycrystalline nature of the gypsum and the finely divided form of the powder studied have no observable influence on their spectra.
