Physical Properties and Data of Optical Materials

By Keiei Kudo, Moriaki Wakaki, Takehisa Shibuya

This conveniently crafted guide presents the physical and optical properties of more than 100 of the most important and widely used optical materials. For each material, the editors examine the crystal system; natural and artificial growth and production methods along with corrosives and processing; thermal, electrical, and mechanical properties; optical properties, such as transmittance and reflectance spectra, ranging over the UV to IR spectrum; and, where applicable, applications for spectroscopy and miscellaneous remarks, such as handling concerns and chemical properties. Numerous tables illustrate important data such as numerical values of optical constants for important wavelength regions.
