Predicted in-line transmission as a function of wavelength for 3Y-TZP with various grain sizes and layer thicknesses. Predictions were made using the Rayleigh scattering model (Eq. 1) with an average birefringence Δnave = 0.020 – 0.033. Regions bounded by two dashed lines were extrapolations of the theoretical prediction, due to the violation of the criterion for Rayleigh scattering.
