The X-ray scattering power of a plane parallel homogeneous slab of material is derived using radiation intensity transfer equations. The scattering power scales with the ratio of the scattering coefficient of interest to the total attenuation coefficient. The results can be used to guide the choice of slab thickness, scattering geometry and photon energy to maximize the scattering power in both elastic and inelastic X-ray scattering experiments.

Abstract The paper considers the application of the traditional X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) methodology: the Overlayer Thickness Determination for the analysis of coating parameters. In particular situations considered in this work, it is energetically favorable for the atoms of the coating to form clusters, but not be evenly distributed on the surface of the substrate material. The change in the XPS signal is analyzed in situations when the coating is not a plane-parallel homogeneous layer, but an island (cluster) structure. The mathematical model of the XPS signal formation is considered for the case of the cluster covering in the form of parallelepipeds. Photoelectron path distributions (in the coating material) analysis indicated a strong dependence of the signal on the viewing angle. For the purpose of analysis, experimental spectra were obtained for several samples: gold depositions of various thicknesses on a silicon substrate. The spectra were measured for different viewing angles of photoelectrons and interpreted within the Straight Line Approximation (SLA). It is shown that proposed simplest model of an island coating allows to describe the effect of a decrease in the value of the effective average coating thickness, determined in plane-parallel geometry, with an increase in the viewing angle, observed in XPS experiments with angular resolution.

Under the anomalous transmission condition in the Bragg mode, X-ray interference fringes were observed between two beams with different hyperbolic trajectories in a very weakly bent plane-parallel perfect crystal with negative strain gradient. The origin of the fringes was analysed based on the dynamical theory of diffraction for a distorted crystal. In the reflected beam from the entrance surface, the interference fringes were observed between once- and twice-reflected beams from the back surface. In the transmitted beam from the back surface, the interference fringes were observed between the direct beam and once-reflected beam from the entrance surface. In the emitted beam from the lateral surface, the interference fringes were observed between the beams after different numbers of reflections in the crystal. The multiply reflected beams were formed by a combined result of long propagation length along the beam direction with large divergence of the refracted beams when the strain gradient was negative. The period of these interference fringes was sensitive to very weak strain, of the order of 10−7.

Recent advances in x-ray detectors for TEM and STEM instruments have resulted in large increases in the solid angle that these detectors subtend with respect to the sample. These solid angles of order 0.2 steradian mean that x rays emitted into a cone of semi-angle equal to 15° will be intercepted by the detector. Since the conventional absorption correction for x-ray analysis assumes that all detected rays are parallel, we chose to examine whether divergent x rays could change the absorption and fluorescence corrections significantly and should therefore be taken into account.This paper will focus on the effects of such changes on the absorption correction of thin specimens. Two specimen geometries will be considered, namely the usual plane parallel slab and the sphere geometry. Sphere geometries are of interest because they are currently used in the evaluation of the efficiency of x-ray detectors, the results of which are to be presented in the X-ray Optics and Microanalysis Conference in Poland this summer.

In X-ray interference fringes accompanied by mirage diffraction, variations have been observed in the spacing and position of the fringes from a plane-parallel Si single crystal fixed at one end as a function of distance from the incident plane of the X-rays to the free crystal end. The variations can be explained by distortion of the sample crystal due to gravity. From the variations and positions of the fringes, the strain gradient of the crystal has been determined. The distribution of the observed strain agrees with that expected from rod theory except for residual strain. When the distortion is large, the observed strain distribution does not agree with that expected from rod theory.

We have simulated the reflection on cold matter in a variety of situations to determine which informations can actually be inferred from observations. We modelled a semi-infinite plane parallel medium of solar abundance matter, semi-isotropically illuminated by a X/γ ray source. The spectra are calculated from a Monte-Carlo method without any approximation in the cross-sections. Θ is the angle over which the reflecting matter is seen (90°=face-on), Θ=all means a spatially integrated spectrum. Fref is the ratio of the reflected over direct component.

The dislocation configurations around microindentations on {111} surfaces of InSb have been studied by transmission X-ray topography. In all cases, glide on the B-type {111} planes only occurs. The most extended dislocation loops occur around A-surface indents. Glide occurs on inclined {111} planes and the loops have extended screw segments parallel to the surface. Around B-surface indents dislocations glide predominantly on the ({\bar 1} {\bar 1} {\bar 1}) plane parallel to the surface. The mobility of these dislocations is about two or three times less than the former type. Direct evidence for the formation of edge dislocation barriers from reactions between dislocations gliding in the ({\bar 1} {\bar 1} {\bar 1}) plane is presented.

Evidence for the existence of four series of alkali-felspars has been obtained from X-ray studies of over forty analysed felspars.1 Optical studies confirm these findings, but suggest that transitional forms may occur. The four series are: high-sanidine- high-albite; sanidine high-albite; orthoclase low-albite;microcline-low-albite. Highsanidinc has the optic axial plane parallel to (010) in the potash-rich members, whereas it is perpendicular to (010) in sanidine.
