Abstract
An effective method to measure the 2-D refractive index distribution of homogeneous liquids: acetic acid and glycerol- water mixture at different concentration and a non- homogeneous mixture of liquids: water, acetic acid, acetone and glycerin but not limited to these liquids is presented. In the present setup a combination of polarization phase shifting interferometry (PPSI) and total internal reflection (TIR) is used. The s-polarized light strikes the boundary of a right angle prism and a tested liquid droplet. When TIR occurs on the interface, the incident light has a phase variation which depends on the refractive index of adhered liquid on prism surface. Two-dimensional index distributions can be easily calculated using the relation among reflection phase shift difference and the liquid index. The results of the tested mixed liquid by proposed technique show the refractive index and its distribution in range 1.433 ± 0.031 to 1.433 ± 0.124.
