Abstract
We present accurate measurements of several important optical constants of high-purity water for wavelengths near 193.39 nm at 21.50°C: the absolute refractive index n = 1.436 62(2), the dispersion dn/dλ = -2.109(17)×10-3 nm-1, and the thermo-optic coefficient dn/dT = -1.00(4)×10-4 (°C)-1. We determine these values by two independent approaches, the minimum deviation prism method and an interferometric technique, and find that they give mutually consistent results.
