Title: Refractive index of copper
Post by: husam on 02/02/2009 19:28:05

I need more information concerning the refractive index dependence vs. wavelength, i.e the dispersion relation of copper. Does this dependency change for copper thin films evaporated onto glass substrates?

I don't see why it should affect the dispersion relation (unless you're talking about just few atomic layers of the metal).
