1. Instrumentation
We describe here the case of a rotating polarizer ellipsometer (model SOPRA GESP5) to explain the practical realization of a measuring device (figure 1 ).
The instrument comprises a source arm and a detector arm that can be rotated on a goniometer about an axis passing through the sample surface.
The angle of incidence is defined by the optical axis of the source arm and the normal to the sample surface

Source
The source used is a high-pressure xenon short-arc lamp with very low residual polarization. It emits across the entire visible, near-ultraviolet and near-infrared spectrum...
