Description

The reflectivities in the energy range between 0.05 and 40 eV at 300 K were studied on plate-like single crystals of LaB6, EuB6 and SmB6 prepared by the solution method from aluminium. The optical constants of these crystals were derived by means of a Kramers-Kronig analysis. The data obtained for LaB6 were compared with the results of band structure calculations and the observed optical transitions were interpreted. (Auth.)
