Measuring refractive index using the focal displacement method

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

A simple technique is introduced for measuring the refractive index of plane-parallel samples having thickness of the order of a millimeter. The refractive index values are reported for six bulk semiconductors, each index measured at two infrared wavelengths using this method. The values are found to be within a few percent of those in literature for four semiconductors. The other two semiconductors were newly grown ternary alloys (CdMgTe and CdMnTe), for which the refractive index values have not been reported previously at the wavelengths studied here.
