Determination of Optical Properties of a Turbid Medium using Fiber Optic Transmission Experiment

摘要

A new method is described for estimation of the intrinsic optical properties viz.,the scattering coefficient,the absorption coefficient and the anisotropy factor of a turbid medium.Two different experimental set ups for measuring the collimated-and the diffused transmission light have been developed.At the green He-Ne laser wavelength of 543 tun,the anisotropy factor for milk was observed to be 0.91 ± 2%,which compares well with the reported values in literature.
