In this paper, the details of the interface region of a molecular beam epitaxially grown Al single crystal on a single-crystal substrate were studied using X-ray diffraction and total external reflection.
Abstract
A new technique utilizing conventional x‐ray diffraction in conjunction with total external reflection has provided a powerful tool for studying ordered interfaces and surface phenomena. It has been used in this work to study the details of the interface region of a molecular beam epitaxially grown Al single crystal on a molecular beam epitaxially grown GaAs single‐crystal substrate. A simple model including variations of the lattice parameter and disorder in the interface region is in agreement with these experimental results.

A novel Z-axis diffractometer for X-ray diffraction and fluorescence studies

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe an instrument that facilitates the performing of these types of measurements and allows for the investigation of the gas-liquid interface using a variety of synchrotron X-ray scattering techniques, including grazing incidence diffraction (GID), shallow angle reflection (SAR), near total external fluorescence (NTEF), and EXAFS experiments from the surface of liquids.

CXVII. The total reflexion of X-rays

TL;DR: In this article, the total reflexion of X-rays was studied and it was shown that X-ray can be interpreted as a measure of the amount of radiation absorbed by the human body.
