  • Following the recent demonstration of grazing-incidence X-ray fluorescence (GIXRF) based characterization of the 3D atomic distribution of different elements and dimensional parameters of periodic nanoscale structures, this work presents a new computational scheme for the simulation of the angular dependent fluorescence intensities from such periodic 2D and 3D nanoscale structures. The computational scheme is based on the dynamical diffraction theory in many-beam approximation, which allows to derive a semi-analytical solution to the Sherman equation in a linear-algebraic form. The computational scheme has been used to analyze recently published GIXRF data measured on 2D Si3N4 lamellar gratings, as well as on periodically structured 3D Cr nano pillars. Both the dimensional and structural parameters of these nanostructures have been reconstructed by fitting numeric simulations to the experimental GIXRF data. Obtained results show good agreement with nominal parameters used in the manufacturing of the structures, as well as with reconstructed parameters based on the previously published finite element method simulations, in case of the Si3N4 grating.
