Fig. 1. Real 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 = 0.2 to 4 µm (Rodney and Spindler 1954a), orange curve at λ = 0.21 to 3.71 µm (Malitson 1965), blue squares at λ = 0.23 to 3.37 µm (Wray and Neu 1969), green x's at λ = 1.31 to 4.84 µm (Tan and Arndt 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). Due to the tightness of the patch of data points in the short-wavelength normal dispersion wavelength-range, some symbols may be obscured by others. Data and fits for normal dispersion region are shown in Fig. 2, those for the anomalous dispersion region are shown in Fig. 3.
