To characterize the point defects and point defect clusters introduced by ion implantation and annealing, we have used grazing incidence x-rays to measure the diffuse scattering in the tails of Bragg peaks (Huang Scattering). An analysis of the diffuse scattered intensity will allow us to characterize the nature of point defects or defect clusters introduced by ion implantation. We have also observed unexpected satellite peaks in the diffuse scattered tails. Possible causes for the occurrence of the peaks will be discussed.
