Popis: Recently developed high resolution X-ray methods have been used to characterize the structure of Pt/LaF 3 /Si samples. The asymptotic Bragg di⁄raction is used for the study of the LaF 3 /Si interface and the grazing-incidence X-ray di⁄raction (GIXD) for the study of the LaF 3 texture. The LaF 3 /Si interface was found to be thin and smooth with the interface thickness value 0.55$0.1 nm. The essential extra-broadening of the main peak in di⁄raction experiments for samples with the top platinum layer is explained by the small angle scattering of the X-ray beam on the rough Pt film. The LaF 3 -film domain structure is derived from GIXD data. ( 1998 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
