Abstract

There have been many recent manifestations. of topological phases in optics, but in the all works, both theoretical and experimental, these phases are considered only as some interesting natural phenomena. We will show that topological phases can be used for constructing the devices capable of measurement both geometrical and optical characteristics of a surface, that is combining the properties of profilometer and ellipsometer.
