We have developed a method that allows a quantification of crystal structures in thin films on complicated substrates with Raman spectroscopy. This method was applied to pure and Nb-doped TiO2 thin films, deposited by various coating techniques onto B270 glass. The films were deposited or post-heated between 60 C and 650 C Raman maps were created within areas of 30 x 30 µm in 250 nm steps. This gives the possibility to determine the spatial distribution of crystal phases within the films and to enhance the signal to noise ratio. We decompose the spectra into the two main components substrate and film, and furthermore the spectrum of the film into an amorphous content, crystalline backgrounds and, finally, the Raman peaks of the various crystal phases. Modelling the whole spectrum eliminates any arbitrary background allowing even small traces of crystalline phases to be detected. The films contain amorphous, anatase, rutile and brookite structures.
