Description
This dataset is an open-source repository of spectral data measured at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL). This database provides quantitative values for the complex index of refraction for 111 liquids. These spectra consist of the optical constants, i.e., the real, n(ν), and imaginary, k(ν), refractive indices, over the spectral range from 10,000 to 400 cm-1 (1 – 25 μm). The conditions under which the individual data were acquired are described in the associated metadata files, and the user is strongly encouraged to read and understand this information to ensure the data are used appropriately for your application.
