A correlation between effective roughness layer and ellipsometric measurements has been established as glass fraction f %. Ellipsometric parameters in dependence of polishing time have been measured and treated on the base of the theory of Maxwell-Garnett assuming an effective medium layer of effective thickness de and refractive index ne.
