Frit samples in the ILC
Results Complex ILC – Fritted glass
Front < Back1. Longer path
length gives increased absorption
2. Increased internal angle for leaving the sample
3. Side-shift of light missing the port
4. Side-loss of light exiting the sides of the sample
Front > Back5. Rough exit
interface leads to light trapping
Results Complex ILC – Fritted glass
Beam area/Entrance port area:Box 18: 0.20Box 20: 0.15Top 3: ~0.30Bottom 3: ~0.40Not only ratio but acceptance angle, so larger port with same ratio give better result
Sphere diameter:Box 18: 270 mmBox 20: 150 mmTop 3: 220 mm &150 mmBottom 3: 150mm & 75 mm
Diffuseness also instrument dependent
• Ranking is similar as in total transmittance• Smaller beam to port ratio results in less loss of light
scattered at large angles which gives larger b-factor• Less difference for almost fully diffuse sample
1. Large angle scattering results in TIR, side loss
2. Intermediary angles miss the port, side shift
3. Enters sphere in detector field of view, high impact
4. Enters sphere like reference beam
5. Enters sphere and strikes baffle, lower impact

• International Commission on Glass (ICG) TC10 – pursues a method using standard diffuse samples, targets
two problems: reduces effect of the sample’s scattering distribution and gives a good reference
• Investigation of center-mount accessory for absorption measurements in addition to the R, T measurements
Status of research projects
• Increasing port significantly increases measured transmittance
• Clearly dependent of scattering• Larger port is still shielded from detector
Constant beam size increase port size

• Using a specular reference for a specular sample seems straight-forward
• Combined with knowledge of sphere response there is a harsher general truth for diffuse samples
Use a reference so that light travels the same path from source to detector

Answer:
Correction possible
b() = Tdiff () /Ttotal ()Tcorr () = b () *RSpectralon () *Ttotal () + (1-b ())*Ttotal ()
This correction is much smaller than the spread between submissions
First order error too small – 6mm thick sample 25mm port 150mm sphere
The relative intensity of light scattered from a single pixel at the front of the frit, after passing through the scattering interface, that gets transmitted into the sphere. Total internal reflection limits the radius of the light entering the sphere port. Center of beam to the left, extreme corner to the right. Even for Lambertian, 1st bounce has 67% of the pixels fully captured. Ratio between light captured and light transmitted is 0.97. But the transmittance in the first bounce is only 0.42 relative to what left the fritted surface .
Gaussian distribution might not do it– 6mm thick sample 25mm port 150mm sphere
Division of the light leaving the fritted surface inside the sample for a given Gaussian distribution. • Left of the blue solid line is how
much hits the specular reflectance port
• The blue dashed is showing how the solid blue gets refracted leaving the material
• Left of red solid line is the amount captured by the sphere all in all
• Right of the red solid is amount that is captured by total internal reflection. In this case a factor of 0.265 is exluded from the first order analysis.
First order error too small – 6mm thick sample 25mm port 150mm sphere
For Lambertian scattering total amount of light captured is 0.44. This is before considering the Fresnel components of absorption and reflectance at the exit interface. A haze value of 0.9 is low enough to result in a distribution where no light scatters outside TIR.
a) We have to look at second order effects for Lambertian cases. B) Try different distribution
1. The reflected light has interacts with the scattering surface and can be scattered back towards the port.
2nd order effect needs to be included
