Coherent diffractive imaging (CDI) is a growing technique in photon science. In CDI, sample images are numerically reconstructed from the coherent diffraction data without the need for objective lenses. CDI is thus advantageous for X-rays, for which high-magnification objective lenses are difficult to fabricate. CDI has been demonstrated to be a powerful tool in visualizing cells and...

The synchrotron-based hard X-ray nanotomography beamline, named X-ray Nano Imaging (XNI), has been established since 2011 at sector 7C of Pohang Light Source-II (PLS-II).
The XNI beamline was constructed primarily as a full-field X-ray microscopy for the inner structures study of biology and material science. Normal operation mode provides 46 nm resolution for still images and 100 nm...

Quantitative and sample-non-destructive (SND) characterization of 3D microscopic composition distribution in materials is important in a broad range of R&D disciplines. The X-ray CT and image threshold segmentation approach has been widely used. Nevertheless, it imposes a length-scale cut-off at the X-ray CT resolution limit, which would limit its usefulness for materials with...

The XFM beamline at the Australian Synchrotron typically operates in the backscatter geometry using the Maia detector and fast scanning stages, allowing rapid and efficient collection of fluorescent X-ray photons. In most cases, the transmitted beam is collected by a photodiode to give at best a poor measure of the thickness of the specimen. However, the transmitted beam carries much more...
