sasktran2.mie.refractive.RefractiveIndex

class sasktran2.mie.refractive.RefractiveIndex(refractive_index_fn: Callable[[float], complex], identifier: str)

Bases: object

A generic implementation of a refractive index function. This class is a light wrapper on top of a callable function that returns the complex refractive index for a given wavelength, as well as providing a unique identifier for the refractive index.

Parameters:

• refractive_index_fn (Callable[[float], complex]) – Function that takes in a wavelength in nm and returns the complex refractive index

• identifier (str) – A unique identifier for the refractive index

__init__(refractive_index_fn: Callable[[float], complex], identifier: str) → None
