J.-T. Zettler,J. Rumberg,K. Ploska,K. Stahrenberg,Markus Pristovsek,Wolfgang Richter,M. Wassermeier,P. Schützendübe,J. Behrend,L. Däweritz +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an anisotropic effective medium model is applied to separate morphology related and surface reconstruction domain related contributions to reflectance anisotropy spectroscopy (RAS) oscillations.

In situ characterization of N-carboxy anhydride polymerization in nanoporous anodic alumina.
TL;DR: Comparison of the PBLG/AAO results with those on a planar silicon dioxide surface indicated that both the conformational transitions and the PblG nanostructure development could be attributed to the confining geometry within the pores of the nanoporous AAO matrix.

Porogen residues detection in optical properties of low-k dielectrics cured by ultraviolet radiation
TL;DR: In this article, the optical properties of low dielectric constant (low-k) films have been determined by variable angle spectroscopic ellipsometry in the range from 2 eV to 9 eV, to characterize the process of porogen removal during the UV-cure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modification of refractive index in silicon oxynitride films during deposition
TL;DR: In this paper, inhomogeneous thin films of SiOxNy have been deposited by laser ablation of a Si3N4 sintered target in an oxygen gas environment and the high oxidation rate of silicon nitride has been used to control the film stoichiometry by varying the oxygen partial pressure.

Copolycarbonate optical films developed using birefringence dispersion control
TL;DR: In this paper, a wide-band birefringence dispersion control (BDC) method was proposed to control the dispersion of flat panel displays (FPDs).

Ellipsometry and polarized light
TL;DR: In this article, the polarization of light waves and propagation of polarized light through polarizing optical systems are discussed. But the authors focus on the application of ellipsometry in the field of measurement in ellipsometer systems.

A Variational Approach to the Theory of the Effective Magnetic Permeability of Multiphase Materials
Z. Hashin,S. Shtrikman +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors established and applied variational theorems for the derivation of bounds for the effective magnetic permeability of macroscopically homogeneous and isotropic multiphase materials.

Investigation of effective-medium models of microscopic surface roughness by spectroscopic ellipsometry
TL;DR: In this article, Bruggeman and Maxwell Garnett showed that the dielectric properties of microscopically rough layers of thicknesses 100-500 \AA{}A are accurately modeled in the effective medium approximation.
