Abstract:Method to accurately measure both refractive index and the thickness of glass is investigated. The method combines equal inclination interference with dispersive interferometry. The interference signal, which is detected by the spectrometer, contains different frequencies and can be demodulated with high accuracy. The experiments indicate that the standard deviation of the thickness is better than the 35 nm, while the standard deviation of the measured refractive indices is below 5.76 × 10 −6. Furthermore, abs… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
