Abstract
This invention concerns the in-situ and real-time determination of thickness, optical properties and quality of transparent inorganic thin films (oxides, nitrides) and organic materials during their growth and during modification of transparent polymeric materials, with the use of Spectroscopic Ellipsometry, with measurements in the spectral region of Vis-FUV from 1.5-6.5 eV, and IR from 0.1-0.49 eV (900-4000 cm). This method can be used in-line for the monitoring and/or control of the processes in air and in vacuum, that concern substrates on which the thin films will be grown, and of the growth processes of transparent oxides, nitrides and other inorganic and organic films with final result the production of integrated systems with desirable properties.
