title: Refractive index of NH(4)Cl-H2O as a function of wavelength: the effect of temperature and concentration.
abstract: The refractive index of NH(4)Cl-H(2)O solutions has been measured over a wavelength range from 496.5 to 690 nm. The NH(4)Cl concentration was varied from 15 to 30 wt. % over a temperature range from 10 to 35 °C. We obtained mathematical equations relating the refractive index to wavelength, temperature, and concentration using the least-squares method. A knowledge of these properties is important for analyzing and modeling the dendritic growth of this system.
