Crystal truncation rods are used to study surface and interface structure. Since real surfaces are always somewhat miscut from a low index plane, it is important to study the effect of miscut on crystal truncation rods. We develop a model…
Incoherent surface scattering yields a statistical description of the surface, due to the ensemble averaging over many independently sampled volumes. Depending on the state of the surface and direction of the scattering vector relative to…
Miscut surfaces of layered crystals can exhibit a stair-like sequence of terraces having periodic variation in their atomic structure. For hexagonal close-packed and related crystal structures with an {\alpha}{\beta}{\alpha}{\beta} stacking…
Using coherent x-ray scattering, we evidenced atomic step roughness at the [111] vicinal surface of a silicon monocrystal of 0.05 degree miscut. Close to the (1/2 1/2 1/2) anti-Bragg position of the reciprocal space which is particularly…
This paper presents a new method to model X-ray scattering on random rough surfaces. It combines the approaches we presented in two previous papers -- \zs\cite{zhao03} \& \pz\cite{zhao15}. An actual rough surface is (incompletely) described…
We present a generalized method to describe the x-ray scattering intensity of the Bragg spots in a diffraction pattern from nanocrystals exposed to intense x-ray pulses. Our method involves the subdivision of a crystal into smaller units.…
We develop a general theory of crystal truncation rod (CTR) scattering from vicinal surfaces with a coherently strained heteroepitaxial film. The formalism incorporates film-induced interference fringes, full elastic lattice distortion,…
Crystal truncation rods calculated in the kinematical approximation are shown to quantitatively agree with the sum of the diffracted waves obtained in the two-beam dynamical calculations for different reflections along the rod. The choice…
We carried out simulations of crystal truncation rod (CTR) scatterings, i.e., one of the surface X-ray diffraction techniques with atomic resolution, from a monolayer He film adsorbed on graphite. Our simulations reveal that the 00L rod…
Scattering and absorption of X-rays by interstellar dust is calculated for a model consisting of carbonaceous grains and amorphous silicate grains. The calculations employ realistic dielectric functions with structure near X-ray absorption…
Inelastic neutron and X-ray scattering experiments on surfaces and interfaces are a challenging topic in modern physics. Particular interest arises regarding surfaces and interfaces of soft matter and biological systems. We review both…
Emerging coherent X-ray scattering patterns of single-particles have shown dominant morphological signatures in agreement with predictions of the scattering model used for conventional protein crystallography. The key question is if and to…
The theoretical formulation of x-ray resonant magnetic scattering from rough surfaces and interfaces is given for the diffuse (off-specular) scattering, and general expressions are derived in both the Born approximation (BA) and the…
By a computer simulation approach we study the scattering of $p$- or $s$-polarized light from a two-dimensional, randomly rough, perfectly conducting surface. The pair of coupled inhomogeneous integral equations for two independent…
We propose an application of the Angular X-ray Cross-Correlation Analysis (AXCCA) to the scattered intensity distribution measured in three-dimensional (3D) reciprocal space from a single crystalline sample. Contrary to the conventional…
Small-angle X-ray scattering from GaN nanowires grown on Si(111) is studied experimentally and modeled by means of Monte Carlo simulations. It is shown that the scattering intensity at large wave vectors does not follow Porod's law…
A formalism is introduced for the non-perturbative, purely numerical, solution of the reduced Rayleigh equation for the scattering of light from two-dimensional penetrable rough surfaces. As an example, we apply this formalism to study the…
Scattering of optical waves by a multi-scale rough mirror surface as a phase screen is considered. To solve the problem we used the diffusion phase approximation and numerical model of a phase jump. The scattering intensity was averaged…
By the use of Green's second integral identity we determine the field scattered from a two-dimensional randomly rough isotropic or anisotropic Dirichlet or Neumann surface when it is illuminated by a scalar Gaussian beam. The integral…
The diffraction spectrum of coherent waves scattered from fractal supports is calculated exactly. The fractals considered are of the class generated iteratively by successive dilations and translations, and include generalizations of the…
