Dispersion analysis of sucrose C12H22O11 single crystal
in: Spectrochimica Acta Part A-Molecular and Biomolecular Spectroscopy (2021)
We present the first complete dispersion analysis of a sucrose single crystal in the infrared spectral region between 4000 and 400 cm_1 by means of an adapted generalized dispersion analysis employing the naturally grown crystal faces. The gained dielectric tensor function and the oscillator parameters were confirmed by forward calculation of reflection spectra of different orientations. Reliable growth of large-sized sucrose crystals makes it candidates for doping with photonically active materials.
