Real time epitaxial growth control of this alloy as well as ex situ on line characterization of the processed wafers is required. Indeed, among other techniques, spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE) corresponds to a fast and non destructive one as compared to SIMS and/or XRD analysis. Ellipsometric studies of heterostructure-base-transistor (HBT) , with either graded or abrupt profiles are reported. The analysis is based on optical databases of indices currently provided in the literature for relaxed material. Within the case of strained pseudomorphic structures, using a calibration procedure to access the real x alloy composition, the in-depth variation x can be determined even with the presence of a silicon capping layer. Good results are obtained for dummy load test wafers as well as for patterned processed wafers where to analyze areas such small as 30x30 microns is needed.
