Weakly absorbing layers: interferometric determination of their optical parameters

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The determination of the absorption of very weakly absorbing thin films and film systems is a difficult problem. In the present work a previously suggested method is generalized and improved in order to apply it for the determination of the absorption of films and multilayers. In the case of single layers, a single measurement is adequate to determine also the thickness and refractive index of the film. The main advantages of the method described here are its simplicity, its self-calibrating nature, and its high sensitivity to absorption.
