The index of refraction of optical quality fused silica (SiO2) was determined for 60 wavelengths from 0.21 to 3.71 μ at 20°C. The dispersion equation n2-1=0.6961663λ2λ2-(0.0684043)2+0.4079426λ2λ2-(0.1162414)2+0.8974794λ2λ2-(9.896161)2.where λ is expressed in microns was found to yield an absolute residual of 10.5×10−6. The variation in index between 12 specimens was determined. Dispersive properties of the material and thermal coefficient of index are graphically presented. A comparison with previous NBS index data is discussed.read more

A fiber-optic chemical sensor based on surface plasmon resonance
TL;DR: In this paper, a fiber-optic chemical sensor is presented which utilizes surface plasmon resonance excitation, which is fabricated by removing a section of the fiber cladding and symmetrically depositing a thin layer of highly reflecting metal onto the fiber core.

Optical constants of silica glass from extreme ultraviolet to far infrared at near room temperature.
TL;DR: New formulas providing comprehensive approximations of the optical properties of silica glass are proposed between 7 and 50 microm, which are consistent with experimental data and substantially extend the spectral range of 0.21-7 microm covered by existing formulas and can be used in various engineering applications.

Large second-order nonlinearity in poled fused silica.
TL;DR: A large second-order nonlinearity is induced in the near-surface region of commercial fused-silica optical flats by a temperature and electric-field poling process and is extremely stable at room temperature and laboratory ambient.
