Fresh Water Sponge Spickle
Fresh water sponge spickles are typically isotropic silicon
dioxide with a refractive index of about
1.48. The central channel and the shading opposite the angle of the light beam are
characteristic in this environmental
tapelift. The refractive index of the mount is approxamately 1.49.
