Probing surface and interface morphology with Grazing Incidence Small Angle X-Ray Scattering

Nanoscience and nanotechnology are tremendously increasing fields of research that aim at producing, characterizing and understanding nanoobjects and assemblies of nanoobjects. Their new physical or chemical properties, which arise from confinement effects, intimately depend on their morphological properties, i.e. their shapes, their sizes and their spatial organization. This calls for dedicated morphological characterization tools, among which...
