Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to an infrared ellipsometer intended to take measurements of a sample (1). An exciter group (3) of the ellipsometer includes a source (101), a Michelson interferometer (103), a polarizer (105), and an optical device (107) to align the source (101) and the sample (1). An analysis group (7) has a polarizer-analyzer (701), a detector (703), and an optical device (705) for aligning the sample (1) and the detector (703). This infrared ellipsometer also incorporates a phase modulator (8). An electronic devices (9) controls the modulator (8) and the Michelson interferometer (103), and receives the signal produced by the detector (703).
