Infrared Transmittance and Kerr Effect of Nitrobenzene

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The infrared transmittance of nitrobenzene has been measured for wavelengths between 0.7 and 12 μ for seven samples ranging in thickness from 2 cm to about 10 μ. Other published information has been used to extend these transmittance spectra to 25 μ. These over-all data are presented as an absorption-coefficient spectrum from 0.7 to 25 μ. In addition, this absorption-coefficient spectrum has been analyzed in terms of Kerr-coefficient information which may be extrapolated from visible and near-infrared data. It is concluded that Kerr-cell modulation of a near-infrared light beam (to 2 μ) is feasible. Kerr-cell modulation in the 2–15 μ region appears to be unfeasible; however, there may be a good possibility of such operation in the 15–25-μ range.
