L. Jing et al., HIGH-ACCURACY CALCULATIONS OF THE REFRACTIVE-INDEXES OF OPTICAL-MATERIALS IN A WIDE SPECTRAL RANGE, Applied optics, 35(1), 1996, pp. 158-160
The interaction between light and matter is studied thoroughly by mean
s of the quantum theory. On the basis of it, the refractive indices of
types of optical materials are calculated by several formerly experie
nced formulas. Finally, a new, tested approximate formula with the hig
hest calculated accuracy is obtained, and some groups of valuable para
meters are given. (C) 1996 Optical Society of America
