Improved Kramers–Kronig Dispersion Analysis of Infrared Reflectance Data for Lithium Fluoride

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Previous Kramers–Kronig dispersion analyses of the LiF infrared reflectance band gave physically impossible results; significant portions of the phase angle and absorption-index spectra are distorted and/or are negative. The published reflectance data have been carefully evaluated; this indicated errors in the construction of the reflectance curve in the low-reflectance region. A new method has been developed for the construction of the difficult low-reflectance curve. This method employs the mean-value integral theorem and the concept of central frequency. Selfconsistency is achieved by forcing the Kramers–Kronig output-phase-angle values to agree with phase-angle values calculated from reliable optical-index values measured outside of the difficult low-reflectance region. The final Kramers–Kronig analysis yields for the first time a phase-angle spectrum which is physically plausible and absorption-index values which are in excellent agreement with experimental measurements.
