Analyzing method for non-uniform-density sample and device and system thereof

摘要

A novel non-uniform-density sample analyzing method capable of analyzing simply and highly accurately the distribution state of particle-like matter in a non-uniform-density sample such as a thin film and bulk element and a non-uniform-density sample analyzing device and a non-uniform-density sample analyzing system for implementing the method are provided; said method comprising the steps of calculating a simulated X-ray scattering curve under the same conditions as measuring conditions for an actually measured X-ray scattering curve by using a scattering function that simulates an X-ray scattering curve according to a fitting parameter indicating distribution state of particle-like matter, carrying out fitting between the simulated X-ray scattering curve and the actually measured X-ray scattering curve while changing the fitting parameter, and using, as the distribution state of particulate matters in the non-uniform-density sample, the value of the fitting parameter when the simulated X-ray scattering curve agrees with the actually measured X-ray scattering curve.
