  • Patent number: 10823663
    Abstract: A measurement device for measuring a thin film on a transparent substrate is disclosed which includes, disposed sequentially along the direction of light propagation, a light source (1), a collimator lens (2), a filter (3), a polarizer (4), a beam splitter (5) and an objective lens (7). To the beam splitter (5) are connected a planar array detector (11) and a processor (13). Light emitted by the light source (1) sequentially passes through the collimator lens (2), the filter (3), the polarizer (4), the beam splitter (5) and the objective lens (7) and thereby forms a measuring light incident on the thin film. The objective lens (7) and the beam splitter (5) gather light reflected from the thin film, and the planar array detector (11) and the processor (13) measure physical parameters of the thin film based on the gathered reflected light. The device further includes a stop configured to block interfering light reflected from the transparent substrate during the measurement.
