  • Abstract
    A multi-pixel modification of the data fitting procedure for imaging spectroscopic reflectometry is used for the optical characterisation of thin films non-uniform in thickness. It is shown that this procedure allows a more precise and reliable determination of the optical parameters compared to the standard application of the imaging spectroscopic reflectometry. This modification is applied to SiOxCyHz and carbon nitride thin films. The optical constants of these films are verified by standard variable-angle spectroscopic ellipsometry.
