Over the last 10 years, neutron reflectometry (NR) has emerged as a powerful technique for the investigation of biologically relevant thin films. The great advantage of NR with respect to many other surface-sensitive techniques is its sub-nanometer resolution that enables structural characterizations at the molecular level. In the case of bio-relevant samples, NR is non-destructive and can be used to probe thin films at buried interfaces or enclosed in bulky sample environment equipment. Moreover, recent advances in biomolecular deutera-tion enabled new labeling strategies to highlight certain structural features and to resolve with better accuracy the location of chemically similar molecules within a thin film. In this chapter I will describe some applications of NR to bio-relevant samples and discuss some of the data analysis approaches available for biological thin films. In particular, examples on the structural characterization of biomembranes, protein films and protein-lipid interactions will be described.

Self Diffusion

Studies of self-diffusion in solids are presented, which are based on neutron reflectometry. For the application of this technique the samples under investigation are prepared in form of isotope heterostructures. These are nanometer sized thin films, which are chemically completely homogenous, but isotope modulated. Using this method, diffusion lengths in the order of 1 nm and below can be detected which allows to determine ultra low diffusivities in the order of 10-25 m2/s. For the model system amorphous silicon nitride we demonstrate how the structure of the isotope hetrostructures (triple layers or multilayers) influences the efficiency of diffusivity determination.
