Abstract
The use of resonant low-angle X-ray diffraction, combining specular an d off-specular scans, has been used to characterize accurately and sel f-consistently the mesoscopic structure and the quality of interfaces for a set of magnetron sputtered Co/Cu multilayers. In addition, the u se of a simulation program to fit experimental patterns, which is base d on the Distorted Wave Born Approximation has permitted to confirm it s validity in the region of total external reflection in a system havi ng a high degree of complexity.
