We address the optimal configuration of a partial Mueller matrix polarimeter used to
determine the ellipsometric parameters in the presence of additive Gaussian noise and …

Currently, there are various calibration methods available to reduce the errors caused by the
polarizing section of a dual-rotating-retarder polarimeter. Although these methods have high …

A rotating compensator type spectroscopic ellipsometry (RCSE) equipped with a
multichannel detector was developed. For accurate data reduction, the azimuth of each …

We present the theoretical and simulation results of the relationship between three input
states of polarization (SOP) and the Mueller matrix measurement error in an optical system …

We advance what we believe is a novel eigenvalue-based method for calibrating Mueller
matrix polarimeters employing a single calibration optical component: a polarizer. The …

I investigate the dependence of shot-noise-limited uncertainties of the ellipsometric
parameters ψ and Δ for the rotating-analyzer ellipsometer (RAE) and the rotating …

In this paper, we focus on the metrological aspects of spectroscopic Mueller ellipsometry—ie
on the uncertainty estimation of the measurement results. With the help of simulated Mueller …

Systematic methods for data reduction have been developed for the dual rotating-
compensator ellipsometer in the PC1r (ω1) SC2r (ω2) A configuration, where P, C1r (ω1), S …

A new method of aligning the optical components has been proposed for the polarizer–
specimen–compensator–analyzer ellipsometer configuration. By carrying out the …

In this paper, the close-form functions of estimation variances on the elements of the
measured Mueller matrix for a dual-rotating-retarder Mueller matrix polarimeter with a …
