Abstract
The present invention provides a method for inferring optical parameters of a sample in a predictive spectral range by use of the known values of the optical parameters in a predetermined measurement spectral range. The method of the present invention capitalizes on the Forouhi-Bloomer dispersion equations for the optical constants n and k.
