GAS ANALYSIS BY REFRACTIVE INDEX MEASUREMENT

Gas analysis by refractive index measurement.

A B C light in a medium is difficult, it is quite easy to compare the velocity of light in one medium with the velocity of light in another. A suitable instrument for this purpose is the Rayleigh Interference Refractometer. This instrument is shown diagramatically in figures 1 and 2. Figure 1 is a plan view showing the components as they appear from above. Figure 2 is a side view of the same ar...

Measurement of The Nonlinear Refractive Index by Z-scan Technique

In this seminar the third-order nonlinear optical phenomena are described. The emphasis is on the nonlinear refractive index n2. We describe the Z-scan technique, which is a simple method to determine n2. At the end we show how Z-scan method can be used to examine protein concentration in human blood.

Measurement of refractive index of PF-5060

For optical studies of boiling heat transfer process, it is essential that the refractive index and its dependence on temperature for the test liquid be known. In this work a simple set-up was built to measure the refractive index of Fluorinert Liquid PF-5060 with temperature compensation and temperature control. The pinhole laser light beam was used for determining the refraction angle. The re...

Refractive-index measurement of absorbing condensed media.

Laser differential confocal lens refractive index measurement.

A new laser differential confocal lens refractive index measurement is proposed, which uses the absolute zero of the differential confocal axial intensity curve to precisely identify the positions of the objective when the measurement pencil is focused on the vertex of the test lens and the reflector with or without the test lens in the measurement light-path, and then uses aberration compensat...
