Abstract

We have performed angle-dependent reflectance measurements of in-situ magnetron sputtered films of B4C, C, Mo, Si, and W. The Fresnel relations were used to determine the complex index of refraction from the reflectance data in the region of approximately 35-150 eV. In the cases of Si, C, and B4C, we found excellent agreement with published data. However, in Mo and W, we found that the optical properties from 35 to 60 eV differ significantly from those in the literature.
