摘要
We report on the combined use of X-ray diffraction and atomic force microscopy for the structural characterization of Nb/Cu multilayers. Analysis of the X-ray diffraction spectra yields the average interface roughness, which can be compared with the surface roughness obtained from atomic force microscopy experiments. It is found that high-angle diffraction averages over a lateral length scale which is comparable to the average grain size in the multilayers.
