With Virtual Reflectometer (VR), you can simulate the basic alignment scans of a basic X ray reflectometer (diffractometer) with a Goebel mirror using ray tracing.
With this program, you can characterize reflectometers and get a reflectometer-dependent overillumination correction for X Ray Reflectivity (XRR) scans.
The pogram serves as an educational tool for explaining alignment and for a proper overillumination correction of XRR data. !!Paper will be referenced!!.
VR can be run by code in Matlab or as a standalone app. It's not necessary to have Matlab installed on your computer if you want to use the standalone app (Download button).
You can find a documentation in the wiki tab.
The program is freshly released. So feedback is very welcome in order to improve it. You can write a discussion entry in the wiki tab or write me a mail to elias.hils@uni.kn
