OSTI ID:7307715

The refractive indices of three prisms of chemical vapor deposited ZnS were measured at room temperature over the wavelength range 540 nm to 1.083 micrometers. The refractive indices of eight specimens of CaF/sup 2/ doped with Er were measured from 404.7 nm to 1.083 micrometers. The doping range was 0.001% to 3% Er. Interferometric measurements of dn/dT were made over the temperature range -180C to 200C at the wavelengths 632.8 nm and 3.39 micrometers on single crystal specimens of BaF/sup 2/, CaF/sup 2/, reactive atmosphere processed (RAP) KBr, RAP KCl, KCl doped with KI, LiF, NaF and SrF/sup 2/, and on chemical vapor deposited (CVD) ZnSe and hot forged CaF/sup 2/.
