Volume 2, Issue 2 (2011) pp. 73-82 Review Article Free Article Morphology and structure of advanced oxide nanostructures using hard X-rays Antoine Barbier Cea Saclay, Dsm/Iramis/Spcsi, F- 91191 Gif-sur-Yvette Cedex, France Abstract Major hard X-ray techniques enabling the investigation of advanced oxide nanostructures are reviewed. Magnetic and non-magnetic surface X-ray diffraction, grazing incidence small angle X-rays scattering and scanning micro-diffraction microscopy techniques are presented. Their application to polar oxide surfaces, growing nano-particles and patterned magnetic tunnel junction illustrate respectively these techniques.
