Determining of dark line positions on laser beam spot

  • Published:
Czechoslovak Journal of Physics Aims and scope

Abstract

Dark mode spectroscopy measurement provides accurate values of refractive index and thickness of thin film. This paper shows that precise determination of the positions of dark lines improves the accuracy of determination of listed quantities by one order of magnitude. Such improvement is of great importance for experimental studies and applications in the area of integrated optics.
