In addition to irradiance and frequency, a monochromatic (i.e., time-harmonic) electromagnetic wave has a property called its state of polarization, a property that was briefly touched on in Section 2.7, where it was shown that the reflectance of obliquely incident light depends on the polarization of the electric field. In fact, polarization would be an uninteresting property were it not for the fact that two waves with identical frequency and irradiance, but different polarization, can behave quite differently. Before we leave the subject of plane waves it is desirable to present polarization in a systematic way, which will prove to be useful when we discuss the polarization of scattered light. [Pg.44]

By contrast with the transmission case, where the phase difference induced by birefringent materials is smooth and progressive, the phase and amplitude changes of the p and s components induced by reflection at a boundary between two materials are discontinuous. Figure 2 shows the effect of these stepwise changes on the polarization of light obliquely incident on a metallic mirror. [Pg.429]

Since the substrate may influence the anisotropic optical properties of the overlying film [595], the method of Buffeteau et al. [247, 566-568, 593] is conceptually more reliable when the MO is studied on solid transparent substrates, whereas the initial anisotropic optical constants are extracted from normal- and oblique-incidence transmission or polarized reflection of the same film on the same substrate. In the case when different substrates participate into the measurements (e.g., when MO in monolayers at the AW interface is studied), the comparison of the simulated and experimental spectra can be used for distinguishing chemical effects generated by specific film-substrate interactions [568b]. In particular, the kmm values derived from spectra of monolayers at the AW interface obtained by IRRAS are usually larger than those obtained by eUipsometric measurements of thin films on solid supports [247]. This difference has been attributed to a gradient in the optical properties of the interfacial water [71]. [Pg.273]

Ellipsometry was in fact the earliest optical technique to be applied to the study of electrode processes. It involves the determination of the change in polarisation state of an obliquely incident light beam upon specular reflection at a surface. In order to fully define a monochromatic light beam it is necessary, in addition to knowing the frequency, amplitude, and direction of propagation, to include information about the electric and magnetic vectors which describe the polarisation state. Since these vectors are orthogonal and related in amplitude it is, in fact, only necessary to consider one of them, and it is the electric vector that is usually chosen. If this vector lies in a plane then the beam is said to be plane polarized, and further if this plane lies parallel to the plane of incidence at a surface the beam is said to be p-polarised, whereas a beam polarised in a plane perpendicular to the plane of incidence is referred to as s-polarised. For any beam it is possible to resolve the electric vector into its s and p components, and when these components are of the same frequency but different phase and amplitude the beam is said to be elliptically polarised. This name arises from the... [Pg.327]

These two different structures can be easily differentiated by observing the selective reflection at oblique incidence [12]. Namely, a so-called full pitch band is observable in the ferroelectric phase at the wavelength of twice of that of the normal selective reflection band, while the full pitch band must be absent in the antiferroelectric phase. This is actually the case based on the first experimental evidence, as shown in Figure 9.6 [12], in which no full... [Pg.255]

The FTIR spectrum of the PTFE film deposited by laser ablation was identical to that of the target [54], but that of the film produced by SR etching showed some visible differences (see Fig. 29). Obviously, the C-F2 deformation bands at 640 and 513 cm-1 appear much smaller in the bottom trace. To understand why these 640 and 513 cm-1 bands were so small in the SR case, we measured both normal and oblique transmission of FTIR with an incident angle of 0 and 80° [58]. Two FTIR spectrometers (PERKIN-ELMER and JASCO) were used to measure spectra in the range 400-3000 cm-1. For a cross-check, the film was also deposited on a metallic surface and infrared reflection absorption spectroscopy [62] was carried out to confirm our oblique transmission measurements. Typical changes in the FTIR transmission... [Pg.316]
