Abstract
Attenuation coefficients have been measured at 6328 Å in liquid waveguides bounded on one side by a metal wall. Provided that the measurements be made on selected samples meeting certain criterions, Ohmic boundary absorption is found to depend on mode order N as (N + 1)2 and waveguide thickness w as w−3, in agreement with theory.Keywords
