The production of the current and next generation of semiconductor devices requires a reliable and non-destructive characterization of the material composition and dimensional parameters of the nanostructures is necessary. A method based on grazing incidence X-ray fluorescence measurements is applied to lamellar gratings made of Si3N4. This technique is based on the X-ray standing wave field, which is sensitive to both the elemental composition and dimensional parameters of the nanostructures. With a finite element Maxwell solver, the X-ray standing wave field can be calculated and used in conjunction with a parameterized nanostructure to model experimental data and thus, derive the spatial distribution of elements and the geometric shape with subnm resolution. This reconstruction is executed with a Bayesian optimization approach to minimize the computational effort.
