Lagally Department of Materials Science and Engineering, University of Wisconsin-Madison, Madison, Wisconsin 53706 (Received 25 May 1990; accepted 8 October 1990) Interfacial roughness in multilayer films may be random or correlated, i.e., replicated from layer to layer. It is shown that these can be separated and quantified using x-ray diffraction rocking curves and a straightforward analysis. The lateral correlation length along the interfaces can additionally be determined. A quantitative evaluation for W/C multilayers shows that correlated roughness contributes significantly to the total roughness, even at length scales that are surprisingly short, of the order 2?6 nm.
