$SiO_2/TiO_2/ZrO_2$ broadband anti-reflective multi-layer thin films were prepared at room temperature by RF sputtering system. Optical constants and structural properties on each layer of films were analyzed by spectroscopic ellipsometer and transmittance spectra of the films were measured by $UV-V_{is}$ spectrophotometer in the range of 300$\sim$900 nm. To evaluate the films, we compared the measured and analyzed spectra with designed spectra. We investigated influence of discrepancy of thickness and refractive indices of each layer on changes of the transmittance spectra. It was found that refractive indices and shape of dispersion of deposition materials are more contributed to changes of the transmittance spectra than thickness of layer.
