What is URA
Angle specular reflectance measuring module that loads directly into the
detector compartment of the High-performance Lamda spectrometers.

Can be used to collect absolute or relative reflectance measurements with

an angle of incidence in the range 8 65, and utilizing wave lengths in the
range 3100 190nm.

Samples are placed on the horizontal sample plate and can range in size
from 8mm to greater than 150mm.

90 means P component

At the angle is 57(it is the Brewster angle), P components reflectance

will be very few so we can focus on S component for measuring the
specular reflectance.
