Abstract
The ultrathin aluminum films with thickness in the range of 2 similar to 60 nm have been deposited by de magnetron sputtering apparatus. Reflectance a nd transmittance of the obtained samples were measured with a WFZ-900-D4 UV /VIS spectrophotometer. The optical constant (n, k) and permittivity (epsil on', epsilon ") were determined by applying Newton-Simpson recurrent substi tution method. The results indicate that the electromagnetic constitutive c haracteristic of ultrathin aluminum films is a function of thickness and ha s obvious size effect.
