Popis: X-ray reflection and near-total external fluorescence (NTEF) of Langmuir-Blodgett multilayers of stearate salt were found to be in significant disagreement with a simple-layered structure. The different samples contained one foreign Mn stearate double layer deposited at a different predefined depth for each sample. A binary model of voids accumulated in successive layers is proposed. The lacunar structure for the multilayer that originates with this model fits our reflectivity and NTEF results remarkably well and resolves long-standing discrepancies between optical and x-ray measurements.
