Figure 8
X-ray reflectivity curves measured before and after N2 exposure of a 2.7 nm thick lanthanum layer. Dots correspond to experimental data and fitted curves are presented as red lines. The fit parameters are summarized in Table 1. To highlight the change in the oscillation period, dashed lines indicate the positions of intensity minima before N2 exposure. (b) Difference between the XRD maps after and before N2 exposure. As a result of N2 exposure, the intensity decreases at the positions of [111] f.c.c. La (white dots) and increases at the positions of [111] ZB LaN (yellow dots). |
