The determination of the optical constants of benzene and chloroform in the i.r. by thin film transmission

Abstract The techniques for measuring band intensities and optical constants discussed in the three preceding papers are illustrated by measurements on liquid benzene over the range 4200-500 cm −1 and on liquid chloroform over the range 3300-550 cm −1 . The values obtained are compared with data in the literature based mainly on attenuated total reflection measurements.
