Abstract
In the letter the accuracy of ESI parameters extracted from spectral spot size behaviour is examined. Different spot size definitions are considered and it is found that the equivalent cutoff wavelength, even for profiles far from a step, agrees reasonably with the mathematically defined cutoff wavelength.
