Laboratory Measurements on the Infrared Features of Interstellar Silicate Grains

  • W. Krätschmer (a1)
Abstract

Thin layers of an amorphous silicate coating were obtained by ion sputtering of crystalline olivine on KBr substrates. The dielectric functions of the coating were determined from reflection and transmission measurements in the wavelength range between 5 and 25 μ. The small particle extinction of the amorphous silicate shows a strong feature at 9.7 μ and a weaker one at 17.5 μ. In wavelength position both absorption bands agree with astronomically observed features.
