Abstract
A theoretical formalism for quantitative description of X-ray diffraction from Langmuir monolayers under conditions of total external reflection has been developed. The proposed approach, based on the distorted-wave approximation, allows to consider physical mechanisms for plotting diffraction curves and maps (in the reciprocal space) for real monolayers and describe self-consistently specific features of Bragg peaks. The resulting algorithm can easily be implemented on a personal computer, which provides the opportunities to carry out numerical simulation of experimental two-dimensional diffraction intensity maps and determine reliably both the mean values of structural parameters of layers and their rms deviations.
