The thicknesses of thin films of polystyrene (PS), poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA), and perfluorosulfonic acid (PFSA) were measured by Ultraviolet Spectral Reflectance (UV-SR) and Scanning Transmission X-ray Microscopy (STXM).

SiO2 thin films are deposited by radio frequency (RF) plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) technique using SiH4 and N2O as precursor gases. The stoichiometry of SiO2 thin films is determined by the X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and the optical constant n and k are obtained by using variable angle spectroscopic ellipsometer (VASE) in the spectral range 380–1600 nm. The refractive index and extinction coefficient of the deposited SiO2 thin films at 500 nm are 1.464 and 0.0069, respectively. The deposition rate of SiO2 thin films is controlled by changing the reaction pressure. The effects of deposition rate, film thickness, and microstructure size on the conformality of SiO2 thin films are studied. The conformality of SiO2 thin films increases from 0.68 to 0.91, with the increase of deposition rate of the SiO2 thin film from 20.84 to 41.92 nm/min. The conformality of SiO2 thin films decreases with the increase of film thickness, and the higher the step height, the smaller the conformality of SiO2 thin films.

In this study, we measured the Compton scattering spectra of Al, Ag and Au metals changing the harmonic order of X-rays from an undulator. The width of the Compton scattered X-ray spectrum changed depending on the harmonic order of X-rays. This indicates that Compton scattering spectra shape reflects a momentum perpendicular to the traveling direction in Hermite–Gaussian (HG) light.

The laterally graded multilayer collimator is a vital part of a high-precision diffractometer. It is applied as condensing reflectors to convert divergent X-rays from laboratory X-ray sources into a parallel beam. The thickness of the multilayer film varies with the angle of incidence to guarantee every position on the mirror satisfies the Bragg reflection. In principle, the accuracy of the parameters of the sputtering conditions is essential for achieving a reliable result. In this paper, we proposed a precise method for the fabrication of the laterally graded multilayer based on a planetary motion magnetron sputtering system for film thickness control. This method uses the fast and slow particle model to obtain the particle transport process, and then combines it with the planetary motion magnetron sputtering system to establish the film thickness distribution model. Moreover, the parameters of the sputtering conditions in the model are derived from experimental inversion to improve accuracy. The revolution and rotation of the substrate holder during the final deposition process are achieved by the speed curve calculated according to the model. Measurement results from the X-ray reflection test (XRR) show that the thickness error of the laterally graded multilayer film, coated on a parabolic cylinder Si substrate, is less than 1%, demonstrating the effectiveness of the optimized method for obtaining accurate film thickness distribution.

We categorized 16 contributions into the three sub-fields. Those are 1. Compton scattering X-ray sources, 2. FEL and RF photoinjectors and 3. Plasma wakefield acceleration/innovative acceleration schemes. We performed a half day working group for each sub-field. The titles and summaries of the contributions appear in the article.

AbstractWe have performed depth profile analyses of the lattice parameters in epitaxial thin films of La1−xCaxMno3 (LCMO), where x = 0.33 or 0.3, to understand the evolution of strain relaxation processes in these materials. The analyses were done using Grazing Incidence X-ray Scattering (GIXS) on films of different thicnesses on two different substrates, (100) oriented LaAlO3 (LAO), with a lattice mismatch of ∼2% and (110) oriented NGO, with a lattice mismatch of less than 0.1%. Films grown on LAO can exhibit up to three in-plane strained lattice constants, corresponding to a slight orthorhombic distortion of the crystal, as well as near-surface and columnar lattice relaxation. As a function of film thickness, a crossover from a strained film to a mixture of strained and relaxed regions in the film occurs in the range of 700 Å. The structural evolution at this thickness coincides with a change in the resistivity curve near the metalinsulator transition. The in-plane compressive strain has a range of 0.2 – 1.5%, depending on the film thickness for filsm in the range of 400 - 1500 A.
