Abstract

X-ray fluorescence excited by a monochromatic collimated Mo-Kα beam at grazing incidence is measured as a function of the angle of incidence. Monochromatic excitation guarantees a well-defined penetration depth and enables a simple analytical description of the fluorescence intensity. This method is applied to a system of thin Cu and Ti metallization layers on a Si wafer and to As dopant concentration profiles in Si wafers.Thereby, the effect of annealing can be analyzed non-destructively.
