Abstract
A least-squares procedure is described for modeling an empirical transmission surface as sampled by multiple symmetry-equivalent and/or azimuth rotation-equivalent intensity measurements. The fitting functions are sums of real spherical harmonic functions of even order, ylm(− u0) + ylm(u1), 2 ≤ l = 2n ≤ 8. The arguments of the functions are the components of unit direction vectors, −u0 for the reverse incident beam and u1 for the scattered beam, referred to crystal-fixed Cartesian axes. The procedure has been checked by calculations against standard absorption test data.

A matrix‐operator approach to reflection high‐energy electron diffraction theory

TL;DR: In this paper, the amplitudes of beams reflected from a crystal surface by high-energy electrons are expressed in terms of matrix operators based on Bloch waves, and the solution is derived in the limiting case of an infinite slab and is therefore applicable to cases involving overlayers of different composition and structure.
