Fig. 1. Imaginary part, m", of the complex refractive index of fused quartz as a function of the wavelength, λ, in vacuum according to data sources listed in Table 1: red pluses at λ = 0.16 to 4.76 µm (Toulakian and DeWitt 1972), light blue x's at λ = 0.2 to 3.49 µm (Beder et al 1971), blue circles at λ = 0.2 to 3 µm (Khashan and Nassif 2001), blue triangles at λ = 7.14 to 11.11 µm (Zolotarev et al 1970), green diamonds at λ = 7.14 to 15.15 µm (Popova et al 1972), red circles at λ = 7.84 to 12.80 µm (Girin et al 1970), black pluses at λ = 8.13 to 9.63 µm (Boeckner 1929). A gray line shows a piecewise fit by Dombrowsky (1996b): m" = 1e-4 for λ = 0 to 7.6 µm, m" = exp[ (λ2 + 20 ) / 14 - 6 ] λ / (4π) for λ = 7.6 to 8 µm, m" = exp{ [6 + 0.6 ( λ - 8 )] - 6 } λ / (4π) for λ = 8 to 9 µm, m" = exp{ [6.6 - 1.6 ( λ - 9 )] - 6 } λ / (4π) for λ = 9 to 10 µm, m" = exp{ [5 - 6 ( λ - 10 ) / 25] - 6 } λ / (4π) for λ = 10 to 12 µm. Due to the tightness of some patches of data points, certain symbols may be obscured by others.
