Development of the device for measuring the thickness of a quasi-liquid layer on the ice surface

Ice has unusual surface properties, which are explained by the existence of a quasi-liquid layer on its surface. Despite a large number of studies, it has not been possible to determine the exact dependence of the quasi-liquid layer thickness on temperature. This article analyzes the possibility of...

Description
Summary:Ice has unusual surface properties, which are explained by the existence of a quasi-liquid layer on its surface. Despite a large number of studies, it has not been possible to determine the exact dependence of the quasi-liquid layer thickness on temperature. This article analyzes the possibility of measuring the thickness of the quasi-liquid layer by interference method, and presents a model of the experimental device.
