Refractive index of DMD 1080p cover glass

For proper optical design I need refractive index of DMD 1080p cover glass (Corning 7056 Kovar sealing glass) in spectral range 375-410 nm.

I will be thankfull for any advice.

  • Hello Boris,

    Welcome to the DLP section of the TI E2E community.  We are glad you found your way here.

    I know from the Corning 7056 Datasheet that they list the index of refraction at 589 nm as 1.487.  At this time that is all the data that I have.  I have put in a request for any other data that may be available from Corning in the band that you are planning to work.

  • Boris,

    The followind data was provided courtesy of Corning.  These numbers are calculated.

    The following 7056 data is precise to 0.00001:
