This study clarifies several ambiguities regarding the selection rules of atomic spectra found in structural chemistry textbooks, based on the fundamental formula of dipole matrix elements. It discusses the specific expressions for the spectroscopy of diatomic molecular rotation and vibration, as well as the infrared and Raman spectra of polyatomic molecules, ultraviolet-visible electronic spectroscopy, and circular dichroism spectroscopy. Relevant equivalence criteria are also provided. Additionally, the meanings and rationality of various spectroscopic selection rules are elucidated.
- Electric dipole,
- Polarized dipole,
- Atomic spectroscopy,
- Molecular spectroscopy,
