Abstract
In this study, two-reflection imaging ellipsometry is carried out to compare the changes in polarization states between two samples. By using a polarization rotator, the parallel and perpendicular components of polarization are easily switched between the two samples being compared. This leads to an intensity image consisting of and off- points depending on the difference in optical characteristics between the two samples. This technique does not require any movement of optical elements for ing and can be used to detect defects or surface contamination for quality control of samples.
