| Abstract | A method to determine the refractive index (RI) of glass samples was validated in this research article. This validation was performed by studying analytical features such as the working range, precision, robustness, and bias. Locke silicone oil type B, glass standards type B and a sodium D source (589.3 nm) were chosen for a working RI range from 1.50225 to 1.52381, according to the typical RI values of glass samples of forensic interest. Robustness, calculated as Relative Standard Deviation (RSD) of slopes of ten calibration lines within a period of one month was 0.24%. Precision of the method (calculated for the two extreme glass standards B2 and B12 in the working range) was 0.21% and 0.14% (repeatability) and 0.12% and 0.09% (intermediate precision), respectively. A Certified Reference Material (CRM) of glass of known RI was employed to estimate the bias of the method, verifying a relative error of 0.00066%. The method was applied to eight validation samples (six glass fragments from different parts of an automobile, a glass container and an architectural tinted window), which were differentiated through their RI values. Finally, the procedure was applied to interpret the origin of glass evidence taken from a hit-and-run incident. A common origin of recovered and control glass fragments was supposed on the basis of the RI determination of these samples, together with the application of useful match criteria in forensic pairwise comparisons of glass fragments. Results were confirmed by means of a highly discriminatory technique such as Laser Ablation-Inductively Coupled Plasma-Mass Spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS). |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
