Abstract

The refractive index of a material is one of the most important optical parameters. In this review article we have discussed different methods and techniques for the measurement of refractive indices of various materials. We have considered the literature of the past two decades from 1980 to 2001 and have shown how the techniques have been developed and improved for the measurement of refractive indices. Some applications of refractive index have also been discussed.
