Imaging aerosolized viruses with an X-ray free-electron laser using single-particle rotational invariants
Tim B. Berberich, Johan Bielecki, Jonas A. Sellberg +12
X-ray free-electron lasers (XFELs) enable diffraction-before-destruction measurements of individual nanosized bioparticles, making it possible to study the structure and dynamics o…
Defect migration in supercrystalline nanocomposites
Dmitry Lapkin, Cong Yan, Emre Gürsoy +18
Supercrystalline nanocomposites (SCNCs) are nanostructured hybrid materials with unique emergent functional properties. Given their periodically arranged building blocks, they also…
Ultrafast decoupling of polarization and strain in ferroelectric BaTiO
Le Phuong Hoang, David Pesquera, Gerard N. Hinsley +20
A fundamental understanding of the interplay between lattice structure, polarization and electrons is pivotal to the optical control of ferroelectrics. The interaction between ligh…
Theoretical Analysis of the Coherence Properties of a Grating
Ivan A. Vartanyants
In this work we aim to clarify theoretically the spatial coherence properties of the x-ray beam in the focal plane after interaction with a variable line space (VLS) grating. Assum…
Resolving the pressure induced 'self-insertion' in skutterudite CoSb3
Bihan Wang, Anna Pakhomova, Saiana Khandarkhaeva +13
CoSb3, a skutterudite compound, is key in studying thermoelectric materials. Under compression, it undergoes a 'self-insertion' isostructural transition, redistributing large Sb at…
Dynamic X-ray coherent diffraction analysis: bridging the timescales between imaging and photon correlation spectroscopy
Gerard N. Hinsley, Fabian Westermeister, Bihan Wang +7
The advent of diffraction limited sources and developments in detector technology opens up new possibilities for the study of materials in situ and operando. Coherent X-ray diffrac…
