Refractive indexes of the (Pb,La)(Zr,TiO)O/sub 3/ system are determined by minimum deviation for eight ceramic compounds over the 400--750-nm wavelength range and for two compunds over the 25--150/sup 0/C temperature range. The index of one compound (10/65/35) is reported to 2600 nm. Ellipsometric measurements show the presence of a low-index surface layer on these ceramics. Such layers, whose origin is not determined, have influenced previous index measurements based on reflection techniques.
