Gerhard Herzberg (1904-1999) was a renowned German-born Canadian physicist and chemist who made significant contributions to the field of molecular spectroscopy. He is best known for his work on the structure of molecules and the behavior of atoms in various states. Herzberg's research helped to elucidate the electronic structure of diatomic and polyatomic molecules, and he developed techniques for studying how these molecules interact with light.
