Problems solved by technology

This method needs to use the method of rotating the polarizer to measure the position of each polarizer several times near the lowest light intensity to determine the lowest light intensity value. The steps are cumbersome and the efficiency is limited.
At the same time, if the phase difference Δ of the sample electric field vector reflection coefficient in the s and p light directions is close to 180 degrees, the reflected ellipsoidal light will be close to linearly polarized light, and the minimum light intensity is also close to 0 at this time, which limits the accuracy of the calibration method Spend

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of optical and electronic devices, in particular to a differential spectrum calibration method for the azimuth angle of a polarization element in an ellipsometry system. The principle of the present invention is to analyze the difference spectrum of the elliptical azimuth angle of the two beams of linearly polarized light emitted by the polarizer with the polarized directions perpendicular to each other after passing through a sample with a known dielectric function spectrum, and accurately obtain The azimuth position of the polarizer. The rotatable polarizer and grating spectrometer are used to complete the collection of differential spectral data for more than 200 wavelength points in the 550-650 nm spectral range, analyze and determine the position of the azimuth angle of the polarization element, and complete the calibration process. The invention is verified by the test of Si and Au body materials; it overcomes the shortcomings of the traditional calibration method on the accuracy of the optical constant of the reflective material, the high sensitivity of the detector light intensity, and the poor stability, and can quickly and accurately complete the ellipsometry Calibration of the azimuth angle of the polarization element in the measurement system.
