Title: X-ray reflection from novel multilayers with variable smoothness and figure: Final technical report for the period 1 April 1984-15 May 1986

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:7003400

The theory of Bragg diffraction of soft x rays from thin-film multilayers has been refined and extended to include the effects of interfacial roughness and diffusion. This theory, together with a recently improved data base, has allowed the development of reliable design procedures for various multilayer applications. Different designs can emphasize peak reflectivity, high resolution, heat resistance, or other characteristics. Success has been achieved in the fabrication of heat-resistant multilayers and in producing controllably curved silicon substrates for multilayers.
