Abstract  TiO$_{2}$ thin films were deposited on glass substrates by sputtering in a conventional rf magnetron sputtering system. X-ray diffraction pattern and transmission spectrum were measured. The curves of refraction index and extinction coefficient distributions as well as the thickness of films calculated from transmission spectrum were obtained. The optimization problem was also solved using a method based on a constrained nonlinear programming algorithm.
Keywords:  TiO2 thin films      pointwise constrained optimization approach      constrained nonlinear programming      optical constants      parameters extraction
