Abstract: | When a highly polished silicon wafer is thermally oxidized, its spectral emittance fluctuates systematically, as the protective silica film grows thicker. If the spectral intensity of the emitted radiation at a wavelength where silica is transparent is monitored, the film thickness can be obtained. |
