Abstract
Recently it was found that x-ray interference phenomena could be observed in the nonspecularly scattered radiation from thin metallic films. In the present investigation, the interference phenomena which manifested themselves in both the specularly and the nonspecularly scattered x rays from multilayer barium stearate films were examined. Several new features were observed in the scattered radiation, and analysis of the interference patterns yielded values of the total multilayer film thickness and the double-layer spacing. The value obtained for the double-layer spacing is 50.3 Å and this value is consistent with values found by other investigators.
