Dichroism of @-Rhombohedra1 Boron in thc Absorption Edge Region By R. JURYSKA Duc to thc non-cubic structure of boron some optical phcnomcna depending on thc oricntation of thc crystal havc hccn ol,scrved. Such effccts were reported for rcflcctancc (l), rcfractivc index (2), and absorption bclow thc absorption edge (3)for 0-rhombohcdral boron and strong dichroism was rcvcaled for the a -rhombohcdral modification (4). In thc prcscnt pqper the dichroism of p -rhombohedralboron
