Palmer KF and Williams 1974 Optical properties of water in the near infrared

Abstract
The real n(ν) and imaginary k(ν) parts of the complex refractive index N = n + ik of water at 27 °C have been determined from measurements of spectral reflectance at near-normal incidence and from measurements of the transmittance of water in carefully constructed absorption cells. Values of n(ν) are reported in graphical and tabular form for the spectral region 3,800-27,800 cm-1; values of the Lambert absorption coefficient a(ν) are presented graphically and in tabular form, along with k(ν) for the region 3,800-14,500 cm-1. Upper limits of k(ν) are established for the region 14,500-27,800 cm-1. The results are compared with earlier studies. [Reprinted by permission of the Optical Society of America]
