With X-Ray Reflectivity measurements, it is possible to obtain information on thickness, density, and both surface and interface roughness on thin films. The technique does not depend on crystal structure and can be used on both amorphous, poly-, and single-crystalline materials. | With X-Ray Reflectivity measurements, it is possible to obtain information on thickness, density, and both surface and interface roughness on thin films.

For film thickness measurement, films up to around 100 nm can be measured. You are welcome to try it on thicker films, but please confirm the measurement the first time by use of other equipment. XRR is a special case of a Theta/2Theta measurement. | For film thickness measurement, films up to around 100 nm can be measured.
