Abstrakt: The optical properties of magnetron-sputtered aluminum and AA1050 aluminum alloy sheet have been examined qualitatively using total reflectance and quantitatively by means of visible spectroscopic ellipsometry (VISSE). Significant changes in reflectance and optical constants are observed, which are related to the incorporation of oxide in the aluminum bulk. The role of such oxide was determined by VISSE using the Bruggeman effective-medium approximation, with the findings validated by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy.
