Fast Ptychographic Near-Field Computed Tomography

Sami Wirtensohn, Silja Flenner, Imke Greving +13

Near-field X-ray ptychography enables quantitative three-dimensional imaging with nanometer-scale resolution, but its broader application is limited by long acquisition times - oft…

Directional Dark Field for Nanoscale Full-Field Transmission X-Ray Microscopy

Sami Wirtensohn, Silja Flenner, Dominik John +12

Dark-field X-ray imaging visualizes structural inhomogeneities through small-angle scattering, but existing directional methods are confined to the micrometer scale. While recent a…

Near-perfect efficiency in X-ray phase microtomography

Dominik John, Gregor Breitenhuber, Sami Wirtensohn +8

X-ray microtomography at synchrotron sources is fundamentally limited by the high radiation dose applied to the samples, which restricts investigations to non-native tissue states…

Nanoscale Dark-Field Imaging in Full-Field Transmission X-Ray Microscopy

Sami Wirtensohn, Peng Qi, Christian David +3

The dark-field signal uncovers details beyond conventional X-ray attenuation contrast, which is especially valuable for material sciences. In particular, dark-field techniques are…
