We present an implementation of the Maxwell-Bloch (MB) formalism for the study of x-ray emission dynamics from periodic multilayer materials whether they are artificial or natural. The treatment is based on a direct Finite-Difference-Time-Domain (FDTD) solution of Maxwell equations combined with Bloch equations incorporating a random spontaneous emission noise. Besides periodicity of the material, the treatment distinguishes between two kinds of layers, those being active (or resonant) and those being off-resonance. The numerical model is applied to the problem of Kα emission in multilayer materials where the population inversion could be created by fast inner-shell photoionization by an x-ray free-electron-laser (XFEL). Specificities of the resulting amplified fluorescence in conditions of Bragg diffraction is illustrated by numerical simulations. The corresponding pulses could be used for specific investigations of non-linear interaction of x-rays with matter.
