Abstract

PURPOSE:To measure a thin-film sample with the decreased penetration depth of X-rays to the sample by setting the angle between an incident X-ray and the sample surface and the angle between a diffracted X-ray and the sample surface at low angles and scanning scattering slits and solar slits in parallel with the sample surface. CONSTITUTION:The incident X-ray 9 generated from an X-ray tube bulb 1 is projected through the incident side solar slit 2 and the divergent slit 3 to the surface of the sample 4. The diffracted X-ray 10 diffracted by the surface of the sample 4 is further passed through the scattering slit 5 and the photodetecting side solar slit 6 and is reflected by a monochrometer 7 to arrive at an X-ray detector 8. The angle gamma between the X-ray 9 from the bulb 1 and the ample 4 surface and the angle delta between the X-ray 10 and the sample 4 surface are fixed at the small angles in order to decrease the penetration depth of the X-ray 9 to the sample 4. The slit 5, the slit 6 and the meter 7 are scanned in the direction parallel with the sample 4 surface. The measurement of the sample 4 is thereby enabled with the decreased penetration depth of the X-ray 9 to the sample 4.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) As mentioned above, in conventional thin film X-ray diffraction devices, incident X-rays are incident at a low angle to mechanically reduce the penetration depth of X-rays, and a thin film that contributes to diffraction is used. However, this alone is often insufficient for measurements of thinner films.

次に試料に対するX線の侵入深さについて考察してみる
Next, let's consider the penetration depth of X-rays into the sample.

回折X線の積分強度は次の第1式で与えられる。The integrated intensity of diffracted X-rays is given by the following first equation.

where ■0 is the intensity of the incident X-ray, a is the volume ratio of crystal grains in the correct direction to reflect the incident X-ray, b is the ratio of the energy diffracted by a unit volume of crystal to the incident energy, and α is The angle between the incident xi and the sample surface, β
is the angle between the diffracted X-ray and the sample surface, μ is the linear absorption coefficient of the sample,

It is desirable to reduce the angle β between the diffracted X-ray and the sample surface at the same time.

As an example of the penetration depth of X-rays, the penetration depth of CuKα with respect to 3i was calculated as RX=0.99 when the angle β between the diffracted X-rays and the sample surface was changed, and is shown in FIG. It can also be seen from FIG. 4 that when β is fixed at a low angle (β=2°), the X-ray penetration depth is approximately % of that at a high angle, which is advantageous for measuring thin film samples.
