High-speed free-run ptychography at the Australian Synchrotron

What is it about?

Ptychography has recently evolved from being a specialist 'super-resolution' microscopy technique, into a mature method accessible to non-expert users. Presented here is the implementation of high-speed ptychography used at the Australian Synchrotron. We use a free-run data collection mode to eliminate dead time and demonstrate extremely high data rate acquisition over large areas.

Why is it important?

Ptychography is shown to be compatible with fast-scanning X-ray fluorescence microscopy, enabling unique scientific outcomes based on chemical information correlated with nanoscale structure.
