Optical properties of Nb alloys were investigated. Calorimetric measurements of absorptivity between 0.2 and 5.5 eV were taken for Nb samples with 20, 50, and 80 percent Mo and for Nb samples containing 10 percent Zr, 20 percent V, and 20 percent Ta. Reflectivity data for two of these samples in the ultraviolet region and known reflectivities for the pure metals to 35 eV provided the basis for extrapolation to high energies. The data were Kramers--Kronig analyzed to determine the dielectric function. The structure is discussed in terms of interband transitions as predicted by a rigid band model for the NbMo alloys.
