Analysis
'k' and 'n' in the mid-IR are obtained by iterative inversion of thin films spectra with full optical model of the film+substrate + Kramers-Kronig analysis and n(15800$cm^{-1}$)= 1.31 (F. Trotta thesis, 1996). The imaginary part 'k' of the optical constants in the Near-IR (> 4000$cm^{-1}$ , <2.5 µm)is derived from the absorption coefficients of Grundy and Schmitt (1998) obtained with a series of thick crystal (0.1 to 10 mm). The 'n' part is extrapolated from the Mid-IR values. Very weak k values < $5~10^{-7}$ between the weakest bands (around 9000 $cm^{-1}$, 1.1µm) are interpolated. The data are completed in the Visible and UV (> 10500 $cm^{-1}$, < 0.95µm) with data at 270K from Warren (1986).]
