Abstrakt: We have determined a refractive index of an organic single crystal of a thiophene/phenylene co-oligomer in its laser oscillation wavenumbers. We estimated the refractive index to be 4.0 on the basis of the mode intervals of the well-resolved longitudinal multimodes that are highly polarized along the normal to the (001) plane of the single crystal. This large number is in good agreement with that obtained by the quantum chemical calculations at semiempirical levels. This is also consistent with the high Q factor (∼24 500) obtained from the line shape analysis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
