  • Abstract
    This paper describes a simple method for measuring the refractive index and absorption coefficient of silicon wafers in the Infrared (IR) wavelength range using a fiber probe. The proposed technique is applied in the wavelength range 1 to 1.7 microns. Results are compared to published models and a good agreement is obtained.
