ABSTRACT:
An apparatus (31) and method for measuring the refractive index of an optical recording medium substrate (34) wherein an angle of incidence of a polarized beam (33) is set at an oblique angle of incidence with the substrate (34), the polarized direction of the polarized beam (33) is varied for the substrate (34) in this state, the transmitted or reflected light beam by the substrate is received by a light receiving means (36) through a light analyzer means (35) in the crossed Nichol state and the received light amount for the polarized angle is measured and is compared with a theoretical formula so that the refractive index in the thickness direction of the substrate can be measured.
