Abstract
The optical characterization techniques including multiple internal re flection, spectroscopic ellipsometry, X-ray specular reflectometry and Raman spectroscopy, are presented from the point of view of the silic on microelectronics. Practical examples are selected. The advantages a nd limitations of each techniques are shown. It is emphasized that rel iable results can be obtained by complementing these tools each other.
