title: Refractive Index Measurements using a CCD.
abstract: We measure the refractive index of materials using a CCD camera with a laser beam profiler in the familiar Brewster's angle experiment. This allows us to isolate quickly and accurately the Brewster's angle close to the resolution of the sample rotation stage. The uncertainty in the index of refraction measurement is similar to that of the standard minimum-deviation technique.
