Abstract
The complex index of refraction N=nik for amorphous SiO2 is derived in the energy range 0.03–1.0 eV by Kramers‐Kronig analysis of reflectance data. The results are used to compute the transmission, reflectance, and absorptivity of thin layers of SiO2 on Si substrates in the vicinity of the 0.14‐eV (9 μ) lattice absorption band of SiO2. The dependence of these quantities on the layer thickness and angle of incidence is discussed.
