the refractive indices for any wavelength within the range from the near
UV to 2.3 µm can be calculated with the help of the constants B1, B2, B3,
and C1,C2,C3.
Constants of the formula dn/dT
The temperature dependence of the refractive index can be calculated using
the following formula:
dnabs (λ, T)
dT
=
2 n(λ, T0 )
(
n2 (λ, T0 ) - 1
D0 + 2 D1 ΔT + 3 D2 ΔT2 +
E0 + 2 E1 ΔT
λ2 - λ 2 TK
)
The constants are valid for a temperature range from -100°C to +140°C and
a wavelength range from 0.365 µm to 1.014 µm. The temperature coefficients
in the data sheets are guideline values.
Temperature coefficient of refraction
Δnrel / ΔT referring to air at normal pressure 1013.3 mbar
Δnabs / ΔT referring to vacuum
Internal transmittance τi
The internal transmittance in the wavelength range between 250 nm and
2500 nm is listed for thickness of 10 and 25 mm. The internal transmittance
and color code listed in the data sheet represent median values from
several melts of one glass type. For HT and HTultra grade, the internal
transmittance in the visible spectrum includes guaranteed minimum values.
Color code
The color code lists the wavelength λ80 and λ5 at which the transmittance
is 0.80 and 0.05 at 10 mm thickness. The values are rounded off to 10 nm
and denoted by eliminating the first digit. For high index glass types with
nd>1.83, the data of the color codes (marked by *) refers to the transmittance
values 0.70 and 0.05 (λ70 and λ5).
Relative partial dispersion
The relative partial dispersions Pxy and P'xy for the wavelengths x and y are
derived from the equations.
nx - ny nx - ny
Pxy = und P'xy =
nF - n C nF' - nC'
Deviation of the relative partial dispersion from the "normal line" ΔP
The term ΔPxy quantitatively describes a deviation relation of the dispersion
from the "normal glasses".
