Abstract :
A method for calculating the refractive index of optical fused silica is proposed and realized. Fused silica is treated as a composite medium with nanopores in matrix with density differing from the crystalline quartz density. Maxwell Garnett model of effective dielectric permittivity is found to be accurate within 0.0002.
