Moscow University Physics Bulletin Aims and scope

Abstract

The accuracy of determining the parameters of the first layer of an optical coating is of crucial importance for the accuracy of monitoring the deposition process of an entire multilayer coating. In this paper we propose a nonlocal algorithm for analyzing optical monitoring data, which allows the use of a more accurate layer model. The possibilities of the new nonlocal algorithm are demonstrated based on the example of studying the parameters of the first coating layer made of niobium oxide, which has a high refractive index and is one of the main materials used for film coatings.
