Event Overview:
This webinar aims to comprehensively explore transmittance and reflectance measurements for both transparent and non-transparent crystal and thin film materials. Through detailed studies, it will be demonstrated how to accurately estimate the effects of various physical processes, including thermal treatments, ionizing radiation exposure, optical exposure, and mechanical treatments, on both crystals and thin films. Additionally, this webinar will provide in-depth guidance on estimating the optical band gap of thin films using the Tauc and Kubelka-Munk methods.
