摘要

X-ray standing waves generated by the interference of the scattered x rays from parallel surfaces of a thin film, the so-called waveguide effect, can be used to enhance or reduce the scatterings from certain depths of the film. Used in combination with grazing-incidence small-angle x-ray scattering, this resonance effect provides depth sensitivity to extract buried structures in thin films of polymer and polymeranoparticle nanocomposite, which are not readily accessible by most surface techniques, such as scanning probe microscopy. We developed a rigorous theory of the diffuse scattering in the framework of the distorted-wave Born approximation using a discretization method analogous to Parratt's recursive formalism. In such a case, the distortion of the electric field of the unperturbed state from the nanostructures of interest is considered in a self-consistent manner. This theory allows a quantitative determination of the buried nanostructures when the x-ray waveguide enhancement is present or the size of the nanostructures of interest is comparable to or larger than the spatial frequency of electric-field intensity modulation. A unique capability afforded by this theory is that a nanometer or even subnanometer spatial resolution can be achieved in the depth information of the buried nanostructures, along with the in-plane correlation of the structures.
