Abstract

The Generalized Morse Wavelet (GMW) algorithm was adapted to determine the refractive index of dielectric film from the reflectance spectrum. A theoretically generated reflectance spectrum in the range of 300-1200 nm wavelength was analyzed by the Continuous Wavelet Transform (CWT) and the refractive index dispersion was obtained by the mentioned method. In addition, a noisy reflectance spectrum was analyzed to show the advantages of the CWT method. Refractive index dispersions calculated by the Morlet and the Paul wavelet were compared to GMW at the end of the study.
