Absolute reflectance attachment
SPECORD S600 accessories Edition 09/2014 75
18 Absolute reflectance attachment
With this accessory it is possible to determine the absolute reflectance of
reflecting layers that are homogeneous and bright polished and that have a
constant thickness.

Functional principle
The reflectance is determined in two steps:
1. Determination of the reference in the V-shaped beam path
2. Measuring the sample in the W-shaped beam path
The measurements are carried out with a reflection angle of 7°.
