<p>Intensity: both reflectance and transmittance, including anisotropic terms such as like and cross-polarized intensities.</p>
<p><strong>Other Applications</strong></p>

<p><strong>WORKING PRINCIPLE</strong></p>
<p>Spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE) measures changes in the reflectance and phase difference between the parallel (<em>R<sub>p</sub></em>) and perpendicular (<em>R<sub>s</sub></em>) components of a polarized light beam upon direct reflection from a surface of liquid or solid sample. </p>
<p><img loading="lazy" class=" wp-image-1823 aligncenter" src="https://www.materais.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/E7-700x333.png" alt="" width="547" height="260" srcset="https://materize.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/E7-700x333.png 700w, https://materize.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/E7-768x365.png 768w, https://materize.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/E7-1000x476.png 1000w, https://materize.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/E7.png 1072w" sizes="(max-width: 547px) 100vw, 547px" /></p>
<p>Reflectance (<em>p, s</em>) is described by the main ellipsometric angles Y and D. Because ellipsometry measures the ratio of two values originated by the same signal, the data collected are highly accurate (e.g., can detected thickness down to Å resolution), and reproducible. Most importantly, no reference specimen is necessary; the measurements are independent from the light source intensity and mechanical vibrations.</p>
