[Dr. Scott Speakman](http://prism.mit.edu/xray/speakman.htm), a XRD Principal Scientist, T*hin Film Analysis by X-Ray Scattering Techniques.* This lecture is offered as part of Chem 255. Free and open to the public.

Abstract: Many advances in materials science are currently being driven by the development of thin film technology. As a consequence, the types and complexity of thin films that a researcher by encounter has greatly increased. This lecture will present an overview of the X-ray scattering techniques that can be used to study thin films and guidance on how to select the most effective techniques for studying various thin films. I will include examples from some of the most challenging thin films that I have encountered and share the tricks that were used to successfully collect data from those films.
