Abstract
In this paper the simulation routine is described with a focus on handling asymmetric reflections. We stress that in this case, the effective thickness of the layers, participating in the formation of diffraction signals, can be very different for low or high X-ray incidence angles. We also show that in contrast to symmetric reflections, when treating the asymmetric ones, an additional phase shift depending on the distance between the sample and detector, should be taken into account. The simulation program is applied to fit experimental diffraction profiles, symmetric and asymmetric, taken from the MOVPE-grown heterostructures and superlattices of practical importance, based on the InGaAsP/InP materials system.
