Abstract

In this paper wer present infrared complex permittivity and optical constantsn andk of the fine amorphous carbon grains. The complex permittivity was estimated by a combination of the measured absorption efficiencies, dispersion formulae, and Kramers-Kronig relation. The optical properties derived allow to obtain satisfactory agreement between computed and measured extinction.
