30. An alternative method to determine heights of iso-lattice parameter regions consists in the analysis of the qz information measured by the PSD detector as discussed by I. Kegel, Phys. Rev. B PRBMDO 0163-1829 10.1103/PhysRevB.63.035318 63, 035318 (2001). This analysis procedure was applied to the (200) reflection data, exhibiting quantitative agreement with the AFM method.
