It measures relative frequencies at which a sample scatters the radiation. FT-IR is a form of vibrational modes caused by absorbance, transmittance or reflectance of a monochromatic beam in the IR region. This spectroscopy measures absolute frequencies at which a sample absorbs the IR radiation. The vibration is Raman active if there is a change in polarizability. The vibration is IR active if there is change in dipole moment. FT-IR spectroscopy is sensitive to hetero-nuclear functional group vibrations and polar bonds, especially OH stretching in water. Raman is sensitive to homonu-clear molecular bonds. No matter whether Raman spectroscopy or FT-IR spectroscopy is used: both methods have their advantages and limitations. These combined methods are powerful tool used for materials characterization.FT-IR spectra of PbMoO4 and PbWO4 (<a ref-type="fig" href="#j_msp-2016-0087_fig_002_w2aab3b7d259b1b6b1ab1b2b6Aa">Fig. 2</a>) show the Mo–O stretching band of (MoO4)2− tetrahedrons at 750 cm−1 to 920 cm−1 and the W–O stretching band of (WO4)2− tetrahedrons at 720 cm−1 to 981 cm−1 [<a ref-type="bibr" href="#j_msp-2016-0087_ref_0014_w2aab3b7d259b1b6b1ab2b1c14Aa">14</a>–<a ref-type="bibr" href="#j_msp-2016-0087_ref_0016_w2aab3b7d259b1b6b1ab2b1c16Aa">16</a>].
