DETERMINING ABSORPTION AND SCATTERING COEFFICIENT USING A CALIBRATED OPTICAL REFLECTANCE SIGNAL

摘要

The invention concerns the technique of optical scatter measurement of a sample, and more particularly the analysis of a signal representative of the radiation back-scattered by a sample illuminated by a light beam. The aim of such an analysis is to determine optical properties of the sample. The method implemented is an iterative method for applying, to the analysed signal, a calibration factor taking optical properties of the sample into consideration.
