Carbon monoxide (CO) ice deposited at 15 K onto a silicon (Si) substrate, and held at 15 K during spectroscopic measurements.

The real (n) and imaginary (k) parts of the complex index of refraction were determined using optical measurements done at a temperature of 15 K and a pressure < 1E-7 mbar, by infrared transmission spectroscopy from 2600 to 1700 cm⁻¹ with a resolution of 1 cm⁻¹.
