X-ray reflectivity
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
X-ray reflectivity or XRR is a surface-sensitive analytical technique used in chemistry, physics, and materials science to characterize surfaces, thin films and multilayers.[1] One of the simplest formulas describing theoretically expected reflectivity from ideally smooth and sharp, structureless interface was derived by Augustin-Jean Fresnel and is known as Fresnel reflectivity.
