I have tried using swanpoel method to calculate thickness for my ultra thin meta film (
Ellipsometry
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ellipsometry
is a very effective way to determine film thickness in the angstrom to nanometer range.
Hi Steffen
Thank you for the reply however currently i do no have access to such set up for ellipsometry is there any other way through uv-vis?
Dear Dr. Canxiong Lau
The attached papers may help you
Good Luck
