Abstract:
The present invention relates to an optical element rotation type ellipsometer, and more particularly, to an ellipsometer used to measure Mueller-matrix components of a sample by measuring and analyzing a change in a polarization state of light reflected or transmitted by the sample.According to the exemplary embodiment of the present invention, it is possible to provide the achromatic rotating-element ellipsometer and the method for measuring Mueller-matrix elements of a sample using the same capable of measuring the Mueller-matrix elements of the anisotropic sample as well as the isotropic sample by using four polarizers.
