Hello,
I want to ask how can one calculate the thickness of a thin film (or each of the thin films in a stack of 3-4 thin films on one another) when
- complex refractive index of each thin film is known (n and k). This refractive index is obtained from a single wavelength ellipsometer and not a spectroscopic ellipsometer
- approximate spectral reflectance/transmission of each layer is known (measured with some spectrometers available in the market)
In short, I want to predit the physical thickness of a thin film based on n, k and spectral tendency
The spectral tendency is a general one and I know approximately where in the spectrum is the absorption band for each of these thin layers.
thank you very much for reply.
Regards,
Paritosh
