Abstract—Based on the developed analytical description of the transmission spectrum in the visible range for
a sample weakly absorbing film–transparent substrate, a technique for calculating the optical constants and
thickness of simple metal oxides has been proposed. The capabilities of the calculation technique are demon-
strated for an X-ray-amorphous film of tungsten oxide.
