Light refraction index

Two-photon three-dimensional (3D) micro- and nanofabrication using a femtosecond laser have been used to create various types of 3D micro- and submicrometer structures [70, 74, 260, 265, 574], A microscope with axial (z) and lateral (r) resolutions given by Eqs. (77) and (78) was used for laser microfabrication [574]. Wavelength of irradiation light (/.), refractive index of the material (/ ), and numerical aperture of the objective lens (NA) influence the resolution in axial and lateral directions. 

In the case of phase shift lithography, mask pattern s height is predicted with the value of wavelength of used light, refractive index of... 

We shall pass now to the consideration of the results of experimental study of spatial distribution of pyroelectric coefficient IT and light refraction index n. The assumption that IT is inversely proportional to the polarization and n is its square, permits to relate the profiles of latter quantities to that of polarization. This means that the experimental investigations of pyroelectric coefficient IT and light refraction index n profiles can be the source of information about polarization spatial distribution.

The physics of X-ray refraction are analogous to the well known refraction of light by optical lenses and prisms, governed by Snell s law. The special feature is the deflection at very small angles of few minutes of arc, as the refractive index of X-rays in matter is nearly one. Due to the density differences at inner surfaces most of the incident X-rays are deflected [1]. As the scattered intensity of refraction is proportional to the specific surface of a sample, a reference standard gives a quantitative measure for analytical determinations. 

Brewster angle microscopy takes advantage of the reflectivity behavior of light at an interface. This method relies on the fact that light passing from a material of lower refractive index, no into a medium of higher index i will have...

We are now in a position to calculate the reflections from multiple mterfaces using the simple example of a thin film of material of thickness d with refractive index n.2 sandwiched between a material of refractive index (where this is generally air witii n = ) deposited onto a substrate of refractive index [35, 36], This is depicted in figure Bl.26.9. The resulting reflectivities for p- and s-polarized light respectively are given by ...
