Recently, surface and thin-film studies using area detectors have become prevalent. An important class of such systems are lamellar thin films formed by small molecules, liquid crystals or semicrystalline polymers. Frequently, the lamellae align more or less parallel to the substrate. Such structures can be easily discerned by their characteristic X-ray scattering close to the incident plane. This paper describes how such patterns can be simulated, in order to extract morphological information about the thin film.

ABSTRACTWe have measured elastic strain distributions with depth as a function of temperature in Al thin films of various thicknesses on oxidized silicon using synchrotron grazing incidence X-ray scattering (GIXS). Disregarding minor surface relaxation effects that depend on the film thickness, it is shown that there are no gross strain gradients in these films in the range of temperatures (between room temperature and 400°C) considered. We also observe X-ray line broadening effects, suggesting an accumulation of dislocations on cooling the films, and their annealing out as the films are reheated.
