Abstract
Specular reflectivity, diffuse scattering at glancing incidence and angle-dependent total-reflection X-ray fluorescence are complementary techniques for the investigation of layered materials. The principles of these glancing-incidence X-ray methods are briefly discussed. Examples show the strength of the combination of these techniques.
