Abstract
Ni films of 30 to 130 nm thickness deposited on glass substrates, at 590 K substrate temperature. The optical reflectivity of samples were measured, using spectrophotometery method in the spectral range of 200 to 3000 nm. The optical functions of the films were obtained by Kramers Kronig method. The Effective Medium Approximation (EMA) analysis was used to establish the relationship between the structural changes through film thickness and EMA predictions. The predictions of the Drude free-electron theory are compared with experimental results for dielectric functions of Ni films of different thickness. The variation of both real part and imaginary part of the dielectric constant with film thickness is discussed. Keywords: Effective Medium Approximation (EMA); Optical functions; Substrate temperature; Kramers Kronig; Drude Model.
