ZnO-based nano- and microwire microcavities are very promising systems for room-temperature lasing and quantum-optical applications [1]. But up to know, the optical dispersion functions are not known exactly, there is much evidence that they differ from that of single crystalline bulk material. We have obtained the dielectric function tensor from a single microwire by imaging ellipsometry. The measurements and geometrical conditions provide us with data from three different experimental configurations simultaneously: i) signals from reflection at the top facet of the wire, ii) the same but superimposed with reflections from the wires backside, iii) signals where the light is normally transmitted through the wire and reflected at the substrate. All those were measured for two types of substrates which are SiO2/Si as well as gold. Especially the transmitted signal, in configuration perpendicular to the wires axis and thus to the crystals c- or optic axis, gives us a very sensitive access to the materials birefringence.
