This document specifies the measuring method for the refractive index of optical glasses with the accuracy within 1 × 10−5 used in the spectral range from 365 nm to 2 400 nm. Additional information on how to apply the refractive index in the dispersion and the various dispersion formulae of optical glasses is given in Annex A and Annex B.

Overview

ISO 21395-1:2020 - "Optics and photonics - Test method for refractive index of optical glasses - Part 1: Minimum deviation method" specifies a high‑accuracy laboratory method to measure the refractive index of optical glasses. The standard covers measurements with an accuracy of 1 × 10−5 across the spectral range 365 nm to 2 400 nm. It defines the minimum‑deviation prism technique, required instrumentation, specimen prism geometry and environmental conditions, and provides informative annexes on dispersion, correction factors and alternative measurement procedures.

Key topics and requirements

Measurement principle: determine apex angle (α) and angle of minimum deviation (δmin) and compute the relative refractive index:

n_rel = sin((α + δmin)/2) / sin(α/2)

Accuracy: target uncertainty within 1 × 10−5; account for temperature, pressure and humidity.

Spectral range & light sources: standard wavelengths from 365 nm to 2 400 nm; acceptable sources include mercury, hydrogen, helium, cadmium lamps, He–Ne and Nd:YAG lasers (ISO 7944 referenced).

Goniometer performance: angular reading capability of ±1 arc second; prism alignment typically within ±3 arc sec (autocollimator).

Specimen prism geometry:

edge length: 15–40 mm; thickness: 10–30 mm
useful apex angle typically 35°–80°
surface flatness: better than 1/4 λ over 80% aperture (measured at 546 nm or 632.8 nm)

Environmental controls:

temperature 20 °C–25 °C (allow ~24 h acclimatization)
relative humidity 30%–70%, ±10% during measurement
atmospheric pressure 86–106 kPa, ±0.5 kPa during measurement

Annexes: Annex A (dispersion metrics - Abbe number, partial dispersion), Annex B (dispersion formulae), Annex C (corrections for T/P/humidity), Annex D/E (alternative measurement methods).

Applications

Precise refractive index measurement for optical glass characterization, quality control and certification.

Input data for lens design, optical modelling and simulation (dispersion curves, Abbe numbers).

Supplier–manufacturer communication of glass catalog data and tolerance verification.

R&D in materials, coatings and high‑precision optics manufacturing.
