In our previous report, we introduced the concept of GI-XRD (grazing-incidence X-ray diffraction) with a 2-dimensional (2D) detector for thin film samples. However, it seems we have not fully explained how well a 2D-SAXS/WAXS (reflection) attachment works in GI-XRD with a 2D detector.
So, we decided to briefly review the usefulness of this attachment together with up-to-date applications of functional thin films by GI-XRD using a HyPix-3000 2D detector with this attachment.
