Scientific paper

An imaging ellipsometer has been developed which employs phase shifting interferometry to characterize the ellipsometric parameters. Polarized light from a laser or incoherent source is collimated and reflected off of the surface under test. A modified Michelson interferometer is used in conjunction with a Wollaston prism to generate two interferograms with orthogonal polarization states. Subtraction of the phases in the two interferograms yields the ellipsometric parameter (Delta) . The fringe modulation of the two interferograms is used to calculate the ellipsometric parameter (Psi) . The instrument uses imaging optics to image the surface under test to a CCd, yielding a truly two dimensional ellipsometric measurement. The deign of the instrument and result of measurement will be presented.
