I am a PhD candidate who developed a novel system and method for performing spectroscopic ellipsometry measurements in an optical microscope geometry [1]. Our instrument has advantages of sub-5 microns lateral resolution and record-fast data acquisition, overcoming the limitations of state-of-the-art ellipsometers in addressing microstructures [2]. Our micro-ellipsometer was successfully used for measuring the thicknesses and consequently the number of atomic layers of exfoliated 2D material flakes with angstrom-level precision [3], showcasing the potential of the system to be used for investigation of 2D materials and their heterostructures.
