Interferometric ellipsometer with wavelength-modulated laser diode source

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

An interferometric ellipsometer, with no moving parts and an inexpensive laser diode source, is demonstrated. Temporal fringes are produced by a small modulation of the laser diode bias current and unbalanced arms in the interferometer. Fringe analysis algorithms are developed, and accurate measurements of the optical properties of a number of samples are made. Temperature tuning the laser diode center wavelength allows the frequency dependence of the optical properties to be determined over a wavelength range of approximately 1 nm.
