Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleThe Influence of pH on Nonlinear Refractive Index of Bromophenol BlueF.Z. Henari, K.G. CulliganProblem statement: Bromophenol blue is a pH indicator, a kind of chemical that changes colour when pH goes up or down over a narrow linear dynamic range of 3.0-4.6 pH units. Therefore a good approach must be taken to extend the linear response of the indicator in order to have simple calibration and precise measurements of PH sensors. The purpose … …Physics International, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 15,948 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDetermining Optical Constants of Selenium Thin Films using the Envelope MethodNehad M. Tashtoush, Osamah ALkasassbehTwo Selenium thin films were deposited on glass substrates using thermal evaporation technique. The optical constants (refractive index, absorption coefficient and extinction coefficient and energy gap) were calculated using the Transmittance (T) spectrums of the films in the spectral range of 500-900 nm. The envelope method was used to determine optical constants. The calculated refractive index was found to be … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 15 Feb 2013 · 6,337 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRBF Approximation of the Lippmann-Schwinger EquationNadaniela Egidi, Josephin Giacomini, Pierluigi MaponiWe consider the direct scattering problem that consists of the computation of the scattered wave generated by an incident plane wave and an inhomogeneous object defined in terms of the refractive index. From some suitable physical and geometrical hypotheses, this is formulated as a boundary value problem for the Helmholtz equation and, in turn, as the Lippman-Schwinger equation.
