Gold's index of refraction in micro-onde

In summary, the conversation discusses the search for information on gold's index of refraction in the frequency of 10GHz for microwave applications. The conversation suggests contacting NIST or other metrology labs, as well as checking out a website for refractive index information. The wavelength for the desired information is limited to micrometers.

Are there someones know about gold's index of refraction in micro-onde, for exemple in frequency 10GHz? Or a book in which I may find the value. Thanks a lot.

Thanks Andy, I've got contact with a guy at NIST who works at GHz.
Still, I don't have that value...

I have also the paper in your third link, but obviousely all the values are given in optical field, knowing that the wavelength of GHz is in mm.

Hi zoe101,

Have you checked out http://refractiveindex.info/?

Claude.

Thank you Claude. It's a very good link. However, the wavelength is limited in µm.
 

FAQ: Gold's index of refraction in micro-onde

What is Gold's index of refraction in micro-onde?

Gold's index of refraction in micro-onde refers to the measure of how much a micro-onde (microwave) radiation is bent when it passes through a piece of gold. It is a dimensionless quantity that is typically represented by the symbol "n".

How is Gold's index of refraction in micro-onde measured?

Gold's index of refraction in micro-onde is typically measured using a spectrophotometer, which measures the amount of light that is reflected, transmitted, or absorbed by a sample of gold. The index of refraction is then calculated using the ratio of the speed of light in a vacuum to the speed of light in the gold sample.

What is the significance of Gold's index of refraction in micro-onde in scientific research?

Gold's index of refraction in micro-onde is important in scientific research as it can provide valuable information about the physical and chemical properties of gold, such as its density, purity, and crystal structure. It is also used in the design and development of various optical and electronic devices.

Does Gold's index of refraction in micro-onde change with varying temperatures?

Yes, Gold's index of refraction in micro-onde can change with varying temperatures. This is because the index of refraction is influenced by the density of the material, which can change with temperature. In general, the index of refraction decreases as temperature increases.

Are there any factors that can affect Gold's index of refraction in micro-onde?

Yes, there are several factors that can affect Gold's index of refraction in micro-onde, including the purity and composition of the gold sample, the wavelength of the micro-onde radiation, and the angle at which the radiation passes through the sample. The index of refraction can also be affected by external factors such as pressure and magnetic fields.
