I measured reflectance and transparence of copper oxide thin films and when I calculated refractive index in range 400-600 nm I have no results because coefficient absorption so high.
mathematiquelly under square root negative result we can’t calculated. but physically what does mean?
N= (1+R)/(1-R) + ((4R /(1-R)^2 +k^2 ))^0.5
is any films have the same phenomen?
