    and starting measurement
  • Building a model by drag and drop from a materials library or from already existing dispersion models
  • Defining and varying parameters to fit the calculated spectra to the measured spectra
  • Interactively improving the model for best figure of merit
  • Reporting the results as a word document by selecting from predefined or customized templates
  • Saving all experimental data, the protocol, and comments in one experiment file

The advantage of SpectraRay/3 recipe mode is a two step action:

  • Selection and
  • Execution of predefined recipes from a library.

The recipes comprise measurement parameters, models, fitting parameters, and reporting templates.

SpectraRay/3, the SENTECH proprietary ellipsometer software, includes data acquisition, modeling, fitting, and extended reporting of ellipsometric, reflection, and transmission data. It supports variable angle, multi-experiment, and combined photometric measurements. SpectraRay/3 includes a huge library of materials data based on SENTECH measurements and literature data as well. The large number of dispersion modelsSpectraRay_glossar-dispersion_110px Dispersion models: Brendel oscillator Cauchy Cody-Lorentz Drude-Lorentz oscillator Effective medium and index gradient Extended Drude Formula Forouhi-Bloomer Hamberg Harmonic oscillator Sellmeier Sernelius Spectral combination Tanguy Tauc-Lorentz Uniaxial & biaxial anisotropic
and others
allows modeling of nearly any type of material.

SpectraRay/3 provides a user-friendly workflow oriented interface to operate SENTECH spectroscopic ellipsometers and a comprehensive set of tools to model, fit, and represent ellipsometric data. The user interface incorporates a recipe oriented operation for operators and an advanced mode for interactive measurement and modeling.

SpectraRay/3 measures uniaxial and biaxial anisotropic materials, films, and layers. The software treats sample effects like depolarization, non-uniformity, scattering (Mueller-matrix), and backside reflection.

SpectraRay/3 includes all utilities of general spectroscopic software package for data import and export (ASCII included), file management, arithmetic manipulations of spectra, display, printing, and reporting (in Word file format *.doc). The scripting capability makes it very flexible to automate routine measurements, tailor it for demanding applications, and control third party hardware like sensors, heating stage, sample cell or cryostat.
