Three-dimensional Bragg coherent diffraction imaging of an extended ZnO crystal1

A complex three-dimensional quantitative image of an extended zinc oxide (ZnO) crystal has been obtained using Bragg coherent diffraction imaging integrated with ptychography. By scanning a 2.5 µm-long arm of a ZnO tetrapod across a 1.3 µm X-ray beam with fine step sizes while measuring a three-dimensional diffraction pattern at each scan spot, the three-dimensional electron density and project...

High-resolution three-dimensional partially coherent diffraction imaging.

The wave properties of light, particularly its coherence, are responsible for interference effects, which can be exploited in powerful imaging applications. Coherent diffractive imaging relies heavily on coherence and has recently experienced rapid growth. Coherent diffractive imaging recovers an object from its diffraction pattern by computational phasing with the potential of wavelength-limit...

Three-dimensional rocking curve imaging to measure the effective distortion in the neighbourhood of a defect within a crystal: an ice example

Rocking curve imaging (RCI) is a quantitative version of monochromatic beam diffraction topography that involves using a two-dimensional detector, each pixel of which records its own 'local' rocking curve. From these local rocking curves one can reconstruct maps of particularly relevant quantities (e.g. integrated intensity, angular position of the centre of gravity, FWHM). Up to now RCI images...

Development of a Novel Apparatus for Experiments in Soft X-ray Diffraction Imaging and Diffraction Tomography

We report the development of a novel experimental chamber for experiments in soft x-ray diffraction tomography, diffraction imaging of single biological objects, and magnetic speckle imaging. The chamber will allow for acquisition of nearly full three-dimensional diffraction data sets as well as high magnification zone plate images of holograms for the diffraction tomography experiment.

Influence of multiple scattering on three-dimensional imaging with optical diffraction tomography.

Optical diffraction tomography is an imaging technique that permits retrieval of the map of permittivity of an object from its scattered far field. Most reconstruction procedures assume that single scattering is dominant so that the scattered far field is linearly linked to the permittivity. In this work, we present a nonlinear inversion method and apply it to complex three-dimensional samples....
