DWBA Equation in thin film

Using the notation $T_{i}=T(\alpha _{i})$ for compactness, the DWBA equation inside a thin film can be written: ${\begin{aligned}I_{d}(q_{z})&=|T_{i}T_{f}F(+Q_{z1})+T_{i}R_{f}F(-Q_{z2})+R_{i}T_{f}F(+Q_{z2})+R_{i}R_{f}F(-Q_{z1})|^{2}\\\end{aligned}}$

Expansion

If one expands the Failed to parse (unknown function "\ellipsis"): {\displaystyle |\ellipsis}^2} of the DWBA, one obtains 16 terms:

The equation can thus be written as: ${\begin{aligned}I_{d}(q_{z})&=|T_{i}T_{f}F(+Q_{z1})+T_{i}R_{f}F(-Q_{z2})+R_{i}T_{f}F(+Q_{z2})+R_{i}R_{f}F(-Q_{z1})|^{2}\\&{\begin{aligned}=\,\,&T_{i}^{2}T_{f}^{2}|F(+Q_{z1})|^{2}&&+T_{i}^{2}T_{f}R_{f}F(+Q_{z1})F(-Q_{z2})\\&&&+T_{i}R_{i}T_{f}R_{f}F(+Q_{z1})F(+Q_{z2})+T_{i}R_{i}T_{f}R_{f}F(+Q_{z1})F(-Q_{z1})\\&+T_{i}^{2}R_{f}^{2}|F(-Q_{z2})|^{2}&&+T_{i}^{2}T_{f}R_{f}F(+Q_{z1})F(-Q_{z2})\\&&&+T_{i}R_{i}T_{f}R_{f}F(+Q_{z2})F(-Q_{z2})+T_{i}R_{i}R_{f}^{2}F(-Q_{z1})F(-Q_{z2})\\&+R_{i}^{2}T_{f}^{2}|F(+Q_{z2})|^{2}&&+T_{i}R_{i}T_{f}^{2}F(+Q_{z1})F(+Q_{z2})\\&&&+T_{i}R_{i}T_{f}R_{f}F(+Q_{z2})F(-Q_{z2})+R_{i}^{2}T_{f}R_{f}F(-Q_{z1})F(+Q_{z2})\\&+R_{i}^{2}R_{f}^{2}|F(-Q_{z1})|^{2}&&+T_{i}R_{i}T_{f}R_{f}F(+Q_{z1})F(-Q_{z1})\\&&&+T_{i}R_{i}R_{f}^{2}F(-Q_{z1})F(-Q_{z2})+R_{i}^{2}T_{f}R_{f}F(-Q_{z1})F(+Q_{z2})\\\end{aligned}}\\\end{aligned}}$

We can rearrange to:

${\begin{aligned}I_{d}(q_{z})=\,\,&T_{i}^{2}T_{f}^{2}|F(+Q_{z1})|^{2}+T_{i}^{2}R_{f}^{2}|F(-Q_{z2})|^{2}+R_{i}^{2}T_{f}^{2}|F(+Q_{z2})|^{2}+R_{i}^{2}R_{f}^{2}|F(-Q_{z1})|^{2}\\&+T_{i}^{2}T_{f}R_{f}F(+Q_{z1})F(-Q_{z2})\\&+T_{i}R_{i}T_{f}R_{f}F(+Q_{z1})F(+Q_{z2})+T_{i}R_{i}T_{f}R_{f}F(+Q_{z1})F(-Q_{z1})\\&+T_{i}^{2}T_{f}R_{f}F(+Q_{z1})F(-Q_{z2})\\&+T_{i}R_{i}T_{f}R_{f}F(+Q_{z2})F(-Q_{z2})+T_{i}R_{i}R_{f}^{2}F(-Q_{z1})F(-Q_{z2})\\&+T_{i}R_{i}T_{f}^{2}F(+Q_{z1})F(+Q_{z2})\\&+T_{i}R_{i}T_{f}R_{f}F(+Q_{z2})F(-Q_{z2})+R_{i}^{2}T_{f}R_{f}F(-Q_{z1})F(+Q_{z2})\\&+T_{i}R_{i}T_{f}R_{f}F(+Q_{z1})F(-Q_{z1})\\&+T_{i}R_{i}R_{f}^{2}F(-Q_{z1})F(-Q_{z2})+R_{i}^{2}T_{f}R_{f}F(-Q_{z1})F(+Q_{z2})\\=\,\,&T_{i}^{2}T_{f}^{2}|F(+Q_{z1})|^{2}+T_{i}^{2}R_{f}^{2}|F(-Q_{z2})|^{2}+R_{i}^{2}T_{f}^{2}|F(+Q_{z2})|^{2}+R_{i}^{2}R_{f}^{2}|F(-Q_{z1})|^{2}\\&+2\times T_{i}^{2}T_{f}R_{f}F(+Q_{z1})F(-Q_{z2})\\&+T_{i}R_{i}T_{f}R_{f}[2F(+Q_{z1})F(-Q_{z1})+F(+Q_{z1})F(+Q_{z2})+2F(+Q_{z2})F(-Q_{z2})]\\&+2\times T_{i}R_{i}R_{f}^{2}F(-Q_{z1})F(-Q_{z2})\\&+T_{i}R_{i}T_{f}^{2}F(+Q_{z1})F(+Q_{z2})\\&+2\times R_{i}^{2}T_{f}R_{f}F(-Q_{z1})F(+Q_{z2})\\\end{aligned}}$
