Abstract
The theory allowing depth profile information to be recovered from variable-angle attenuated total reflection spectroscopy is shown for both perpendicular and parallel polarizations. The errors invoked by the necessary approximations are evaluated by comparison with exact optical simulations using dispersion theory.
