Abstract

AbstractUsing simultaneous analysis of both the grazing incidence X‐ray reflectivity (GIXR) and the angular dependent fluorescence yield from ultrathin layer structures, the densities of thin La and LaN layers of 2–6 nm thickness enclosed by B4C layers have been determined with approximately 5% precision. The density of the La layer in these systems is found to be reduced to the bulk La value. This is explained by LaB6 interlayers formation. The density of LaN layers were similar to the bulk LaN value, which favors this compound as the most energetically stable in LaN/B4C layered systems.
