Frequency-domain technique for optical property measurements in moderately scattering media.
We demonstrate a reflection geometry frequency-domain technique that is suitable for measurement of the optical properties of a medium with moderate scatter and absorption (mu(s) and mu(a) ~ 1 m(-1)). Variations in absorption and scatter produce opposing tends in the amplitude signal and common trends in the phase signal, allowing unique determination of absorption and scattering coefficients for a given phase function. An analytical model based on single-scattering events gives good agreement with experimental measurements.
