Description

Method for measuring refractive index of parallel plane transparent solid material
Technical Field
The invention relates to a method for measuring the refractive index of a transparent material, in particular to a method for measuring the refractive index of a parallel plane transparent solid material.
Background
The refractive index is an important parameter of the optical properties of the material, and the refractive index of the transparent material is measured by a minimum deviation angle method and a total reflection method. The minimum deviation angle method measurement has no limitation on the refractive index of the measured material, but the measured material needs to be processed into a prism, which brings great trouble to measuring personnel, and the prism processing difficulty is large except that the original shape of the material is damaged. The total reflection method is convenient to test, but is only suitable for materials with a certain range of refractive index. In addition, a special tool and corresponding matching conditions are needed for measuring the angle, the limitation is large, and the measuring steps are complicated, so that certain uncertainty is brought to the final refractive index measuring result. In contrast, the material with the two-side parallel structure has low processing technology difficulty and wide application range, and most optical elements have the two-side parallel planar structure in practical application, so that the method for measuring the refractive index, which is simple and convenient and is suitable for the parallel planar transparent solid material, has very important practical value.

The method is simple and easy to implement, and can be used for conveniently measuring the refractive index of the transparent solid material with two parallel planes.
The principle of the invention is as follows:
FIG. 2 is a refraction diagram of light rays passing through a planar transparent solid material, wherein α1Angle of incidence of incident ray, α2Angle of refraction of refracted ray, r1Distance of incident ray to optical axis of light beam, r2Distance L from the intersection point of the refracted rays on the rear surface of the planar transparent solid material to the optical axis of the light beam3Distance of focal point A from front surface of planar transparent solid material, L4Distance of focal point B to the front surface of the planar transparent solid material.
From FIG. 2, it can be seen that
L4=r1ctgα1(1)
L3=d+r2ctgα1(2)
Substituting (1) and (2) into the formula (3)
L1-L2=L3-L4=d+(r2-r1)ctgα1(3)
From the formula (3), it can be obtained

From FIG. 2, it can be seen that
r1-r2=dtgα2(5)
From the formula (5), it can be obtained
Figure BDA0002373273390000022
When α1Smaller
sinα1≈tgα1(7)
sinα2≈tgα2(8)
At this time, the law of refraction can be used
