The design of an ultra fast ellipsometer is suggested. It adopts the division-of-amplitude-photopolarimeter (DOAP) as the polarization state detector. It does not utilize any moving part such as the rotating polarizer(analyzer) or even any electronic modulation part like the piezo-electric phase modulator. Hence the time resolution of the present system is limited only by the response time of the photo-detector and electronic circuit as well as the analog-digital converter. The feasibility of the suggested ultra fast ellipsometer was tested and the response time with nano-second time resolution has been verified. Its future application to the investigation of kinetics including that of the phase-change optical recording media like GezSb2 Tes is discussed. ussed.
