An X-ray holographic method that reconstructs a single layer of atoms at the interface between ultra-thin film and substrate crystal is studied. We applied the method to the analysis of the interface structure of iron-silicide grown on the Si(111) surface, the structure of which is considered to be the CsCl-type FeSi. First we confirmed by simulations that the method is useful to discriminate whether an additional layer at the interface exists or not, using calculated X-ray intensities. Next we applied the method to the analysis of experimental data obtained for Si(111)-2 x 2-Fe. The result indicated the existence of the interface atoms, corresponding to the B8 model for CsCl-type FeSi.
