Ellipsometry is a unique optical technique of great sensitivity for in situ non-destructive characterization of surface (inter-facial) phenomena (reactions) utilizing the change in the state of polarization of a light-wave probe. Thesis, TUFTS University, Medford, MA (2002). The polarizer can be divided into three, namely, the linearly polarized light, ellipsometry and circularly polarized light. Spectral ellipsometry includes measurement and analysis of the complex reflection ratio in wide range of wavelengths at a fixed angle of light incidence. Internal photoemission spectroscopy correlates the energy and wavelength of photons striking a surface with the energy of emitted electrons. Georgiev G., “Structural studies of polymers and polymer liquid crystals by X-ray scattering, thermal analysis and ellipsometric studies through polarized light microscopy “ Ph.D. The technique is based on measurement and analysis of the changes in the state of polarization that occur when polarized light is reflected on a sample surface. The main advantage of spectroscopic reflectometry is its low-cost and simplicity. Meltser and Broza had noticed that the tormenting insects prefer patches of water that reflect little light, and when they heard that dark water reflects more polarized light than brightly lit water the pair wondered whether the insects were basing their . Ellipsometry is the analysis of the change in the state of polarized light after it has reflected from the surface of a thin film sample. Ellipsometry is an optical technique used for studies of thin films and surfaces. That uses the polarization properties of light to measure the phase retardation induced by the birefringence of the RNFL.4 This method is essentially based on a confocal scanning laser ophthalmoscope with an integrated ellipsometer. Theory of Ellipsometry 1 Polarized Light and EllipsometryJosef Humlíc ˇek Institute of Condensed Matter Physics, Faculty of Science Masaryk University Brno, Czech RepublicPolarization is a fundamental property of light. Non-polarized light is used at normal incidence.
