McStas: Multilayer_Sample

[ Identification | Description | Input parameters | Links ]

The Multilayer_Sample Component

Multilayer Reflecting sample using matrix Formula.

Identification

  • Site:
  • Author: Robert Dalgliesh
  • Origin: McStas 1.12b
  • Date: June 2010

Description

in order to get this to compile you need to link against
the gsl and gslcblas libraries.

to do this automatically edit
/usr/local/lib/mcstas/tools/perl/mcstas_config.perl

add -lgsl and -lgslcblas to the CFLAGS line

Horizontal reflecting substrate defined by SLDs,Thicknesses, roughnesses
The superphase may also be determined

Example: Multilayer_Sample(xmin=-0.1, xmax=0.1,zmin=-0.1, zmax=0.1, nlayer=1,sldPar={0.0,2.0e-6,0.0e-6},dPar={20.0}, sigmaPar={5.0,5.0})

Example: d1 500: sld1 (air) 0.0: sld2 (Si) 2.07e-6: sldf1(film Ni) 9.1e-6
