Abstract. Theoretical and experimental studies of silicon crystals irradiated with high-
energy electrons (Е = 18 MeV) were made using the method of full integral X-ray
reflectivity. To explain peculiarities of full integral reflectivity behaviour versus radiation
dose and the order of reflection, the relationships of generalized dynamic theory of the
Bragg X-ray diffraction in crystal comprising several defect types were used. The
presence of several types of dominant defects in crystals allows closer tracing the
dynamics of full integral reflectivity change versus the order of reflection and radiation
dose, as well as estimating the contribution of each defect type to the diffusion
component of X-ray scattering.
Keywords: irradiation with high-energy electrons, X-ray reflectivity, Cz-Si, oxygen-
containing defects.
