Abstract

Results of investigations of a possible application of RHEED azimuthal plots of characterize in situ epitaxially grown thin films are described. Dynamically calculated and measured azimuthal plots for Si(111) are compared. A set of azimuthal plots experimentally collected at different stages of preparation of a Si/YSi2-x/Si(111)-7×7 layered structure are presented.
