Description

The temperature variations of the refractive indices of LiYF4, YLF, have been measured in the visible region of the spectrum. The temperature variation at 0.546 μm are -0.67 x 10-6/0C and -2.30 x 10-6/0C for the ordinary and extraordinary refractive indices, respectively. A Sellmeier equation was fit to more extensive room-temperature refractive-index data measured elsewhere
