Optical constants of minerals and other materials from the millimeter to the ultraviolet

Abstract : Reflectance spectra of near normal incidence and/or transmittance spectra of 29 materials were acquired in the ultraviolet, visible, and infrared spectra regions. Optical constants of the materials were determined primarily by use of Kramers-Kronig analysis of reflectance or extinction coefficient spectra. The materials were: Sodium chloride, Potassium chloride, Cesium iodide, Cesium bromide, Zinc sulfide, Zinc selenide, Barium fluoride, Zinc, Manganese, Molybdenum, Zirconium, Anhydrite, Dolomite, Montomorillonite, Kaolin, Illite, Composite of clays, Lanthanum hexaboride, Diesel soot, Polydimethylsiloxane, Dimethyl methylphosphonate, Diethyl sulfite, Diisopropyl methyl phosphonate, and Diethylphthalate.
