Abstract
High-resolution synchrotron x-ray diffraction from a Si(001) grating s urface reveals resolution-limited grating interference peaks around ea ch Bragg reflection. The peaks can be explained by kinematic scatterin g theory using the concept of a grating form factor. The positions and the intensities of the satellite peaks yield structural information s uch as the period, the width, and the height of the gratings, as well as its shape and it's orientation and registry with respect to substra te lattice, and possible crystal strains.
