28. Although a priori valid only for a distribution of cylindrical clusters, this approximation was shown to yield a good estimation of the in-plane width for very different island shapes.

41. The clean MgO CTR’s width was estimated at 0.01° from the width of a rocking scan around the (1 1 0.15) point. At this location, the width of the resolution function is negligible since the Bragg angle is the same for the MgO and the monochromator.
