Abstract
We consider features and restrictions of ellipsometry as applied to the system consisting of a silicon dioxide film on silicon, which is widely used in nanoelectronics. A method is developed for ellipsometric determination of the presence or absence of the "film-substrate" interfacial layer. Contributions of various factors into the total measurement uncertainty are analyzed, including the factors related to the ellipsometer characteristics.
