The Young modulus, Poisson ratio and internal friction of amorphous oxides and Ta2O5-based mixed oxide thin films are obtained from ring-down measurements. These results allow one to identify the suitability of these materials for low Brownian noise coating structures for ultrastable optical cavities.
