22. The compensator is an optical element that changes the phase of an incident wave, delaying one of the two orthogonal light constituents. Use of compensators in ellipsometry, in general, allows access to the sign of the ellipsometry parameter Δ, i.e., the handedness of the ellipticity of the plane wave polarization course. Without compensator function, one further loses accuracy in the determination of the ellipsometric parameters when Δ is near 0° or 180°.
