The stress‐optic coefficients or Brewster constants C'λ001 and C'λ110 of mixed crystals of KClKBr are measured in the wavelength range 3000 to 6200 Å using a modified Filon method. The percentage dispersion of C'λ001 and C'λ110 increases with increasing KBr content, reaches a maximum around equimolar concentration, and finally falls off to the value of pure KBr. Also, at a given wavelength, the C'λ vary nonlinearly with the composition of the mixture, the deviation being larger in the ultraviolet.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
