Abstract
Quantitative x-ray diffraction (XRD) and high resolution electron micr oscopy (HREM) have been applied to the analysis of an epitaxial CoO/Ni O superlattice. This example shows that the qualitative information de termined directly from a XRD spectrum or HREM image is limited and can even be misleading. However, by a combination of quantitative intensi ty measurements and structural modeling, a detailed quantitative chara cterization of the superlattice structure is
