Implement model of growing roughness (#969)
- Adds linear growth model to BA.
-
Roughness spectrum and rms are not the local properties of the interface anymore. The whole underlying structure is needed to compute interface properties. That is why methods
layerInterfaceSpectrum(...)andlayerInterfaceRMS()now belong to classMultilayer. -
SpatialFrequencyCrosscorrelationmodel now uses expression
spectrum_i_k = sqrt(spectrum_i * spectrum_k)
for crosscorrelated spectrum, instead of the old
spectrum_i_k = 0.5* (rms_k/rms_i * spectrum_i + rms_i/rms_k * spectrum_k)
The latter expression is not self-consistent and may lead to small negative scattered intensity under certain conditions.
The new model obeys the following general relation which is also a criterion for the proper model:
---------
--------- i
---------
---------
--------- j
---------
---------
--------- k
---------
spectrum_i_k = spectrum_i_j * spectrum_j_k / spectrum_j
- Roughness rms is retrieved now by methods with
rmsin their name.Sigmais unwanted for this role, because for the cut spectrum the sigma parameter of K-correlation model does not correspond the full rms.
