Abstract
A goniometric system is used in conjuction with an FT-IR (Fourier-Transform Infrared) spectrophotometer to perform reflectance and transmittance measurements as a function of angle of incidence from 12 to 80 . The input beam is polarized using a high-quality Ge reflective Brewster-angle polarizer, and is focussed onto the sample with an approximately f/50 geometry. The average angle of incidence is controlled to within 0.05 , and spectra are recorded for both s- and p-polarization over a wavelength range of 1.6 mm to 5.2 mm, using a photoconductive InSb detector. Measurements results are compared to the predictions of the Fresnel equations in order to assess the accuracy of the instrument.Proceedings Title
