Main Peak Profiles of Total Reflection X-Ray Fluorescence Analysis of Si(001) Wafers Excited by Monochromatic X-Ray Beam W-Lβ (I)

Abstract
It is shown that the main peak profiles of monochromatic Total reflection X-ray fluorescence analysis (TXRF) depend very much on the misorientation of the crystallographic [001] axis or the vicinal surface of Si(001) wafer from the crystallographic direction, when TXRF is used for trace analysis of Si wafers. This phenomenon is closely related to the diffraction phenomenon of evanescent beam penetration into a Si wafer under the condition of total external reflection.
