Abstract: A zero-stop mechanism comprises first and second stop members and a movement limit member. The second stop member is releasably secured to an adjustment mechanism. The movement limit member extends around a turret assembly and has a substantially annular main body from which a lug extends. In a first rotational direction of the adjustment mechanism, the second stop member comes into contact with a first side of the lug whereby the main body is rotated in the first rotational direction until a second side of the lug comes into contact with the first stop member. In a second rotational direction of the adjustment mechanism, the second stop member comes into contact with the lug second side whereby the main body is rotated in the second rotational direction until the lug first side contacts the first stop member.

Abstract: An ellipsometer uses a broadband light source and a Fresnel cone to produce a simultaneous broadband polarization state generator with no moving parts. The detector of the ellipsometer includes a diffractive element to spatially separate the wavelengths of the light from the sample. The wavelengths may be spatially separated sufficiently that there is no overlap of bands of wavelengths when imaged by a two-dimensional sensor or may be temporally separated. Additionally, the detector separates and simultaneously analyzes the polarizations states of the light from the sample so there is no overlap of polarization states when imaged by a two-dimensional sensor and no moving parts are used. The resulting image with separated wavelengths and polarization states may be used to determine at least a partial Mueller matrix for the sample.
