It is more difficult to distinguish homologues and isomers of organic pollutantd when present in trace amounts because of their similar physical and chemical properties. In this work we simulate the Raman spectra of hexachlorobenzene and benzene, and figure out the vibration mode of each main peak. The effect on the Raman spectrum of changing substituents from H to Cl is analyzed to reveal the relations between the Raman spectra of homologues and isomers of polychlorinated benzene, which should be helpful for distinguishing one kind of polychlorinated benzene from its homologues and isomers by surface enhanced Raman scattering.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s111211510","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,12,8]],"date-time":"2011-12-08T10:16:12Z","timestamp":1323339372000},"page":"11510-11515","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":42,"title":["Contrastive Analysis of the Raman Spectra of Polychlorinated Benzene: Hexachlorobenzene and Benzene"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"11","author":[{"given":"Xian","family":"Zhang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Advanced Materials Laboratory, Department of Materials Science and Engineering, Tsinghua University, Beijing 100084, China"}]},{"given":"Qin","family":"Zhou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Advanced Materials Laboratory, Department of Materials Science and Engineering, Tsinghua University, Beijing 100084, China"},{"name":"Institute of Nuclear and New Energy Technology, Tsinghua University, Beijing 100084, China"}]},{"given":"Yu","family":"Huang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Advanced Materials Laboratory, Department of Materials Science and Engineering, Tsinghua University, Beijing 100084, China"}]},{"given":"Zhengcao","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Advanced Materials Laboratory, Department of Materials Science and Engineering, Tsinghua University, Beijing 100084, China"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8727-6373","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Zhengjun","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Advanced Materials Laboratory, Department of Materials Science and Engineering, Tsinghua University, Beijing 100084, China"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2011,12,8]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"275","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ecoenv.2004.06.003","article-title":"The public health implications of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in the environment","volume":"59","author":"Ross","year":"2004","journal-title":"Ecotoxicol.
