Refractive index measurement through image analysis with an optofluidic device

Opt Express. 2012 Jan 30;20(3):2073-80. doi: 10.1364/OE.20.002073.

Abstract

We present a novel optical method, to our knowledge, to measure the refractive index of liquids by means of the images produced by an optofluidic lens. In addition we propose a new method to make optofluidic lenses.
