Abstract
The temperature behaviour of the optical properties of iron and nickel single crystals and of polycrystalline cerium has been studied in the spectral range from 0.2 to 5.2 eV by an ellipsometric method in vacuu m of p almost-equal-to 10(-9)-10(-11) Torr. The influence of ferromagn etic (Fe, Ni) and isostructural (Ce) phase transitions on the optical conductivity sigma are discussed in detail. From the analysis of exper imental results a conclusion is made about the character of change of the electronic structure during phase transitions.
