The influence of a temperature gradient directed perpendicular to the crystal surface on the diffraction focusing of a spherical X-ray wave in a superlattice is studied for the Laue geometry. It is shown that different satellites can be focused on the exit surface of the crystal by a smooth change in the gradient value, which can become the basis for the experimental determination of the structure factor of the superlattice.
Abstract⎯X-ray dynamic diffraction on a superlattice with a stacking fault between the layers is considered theoretically in the case of interdiffusion of superlattice components. Expressions for the X-ray reflectance within satellite limits, depending on the wave's phase jump on the stacking fault, its depth and the extent of interdiffusion of superlattice components are obtained.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
