Monitoring Spontaneous Charge-Density Fluctuations by Single-Molecule Diffraction of Quantum Light

Homodyne X-ray diffraction signals produced by classical light and classical detectors are given by the modulus square of the charge density in momentum space vertical bar sigma(q)vertical bar(2), missing its phase, which is required in order to invert the ...

Adjoint-based Optimization for Diffractive Beam-Splitters

Toralf Scharf, Dong Cheon Kim

Computational optimization of diffractive elements is often limited by a large number of design parameters. Adjoint method allows the gradient of target function respect to all design variables to be calculated with only two electromagnetic simulations. We ...

Femtosecond X-ray coherent diffraction of aligned amyloid fibrils on low background graphene

Henning Paul-Julius Stahlberg

Here we present a new approach to diffraction imaging of amyloid fibrils, combining a freestanding graphene support and single nanofocused X-ray pulses of femtosecond duration from an X-ray free-electron laser. Due to the very low background scattering fro ...

Three-dimensional electron imaging of dislocations from a single sample tilt

Pascal Fua, Cécile Hébert, Emad Oveisi, Antoine Letouzey

Linear crystal defects called dislocations are one of the most fascinating concepts in materials science that govern mechanical and optoelectronic properties of many materials across a broad range of application. Three-dimensional (3-D) study of dislocatio ...

Transparent dielectric elastomer actuator used as tunable optical grating

Herbert Shea, Samuel Rosset, Xiaobin Ji

In this work, a transparent dielectric elastomer actuator is integrated into a tunable transmission grating. A 13 micron-thick silicone membrane has been sandwiched between two 750 nanometer-thick transparent ionogel electrodes to fabricate a transparent d ...

We report the study of the skyrmion state near the surface of Cu2OSeO3 using soft resonant elastic x-ray scattering (REXS) at the Cu L-3 edge. Within the lateral sampling area of 200 x 200 mu m(2), we found a long-range-ordered skyrmion lattice phase as we ...

The role of the coherence in the cross-correlation analysis of diffraction patterns from two-dimensional dense mono-disperse systems

Fabrizio Carbone, Giulia Fulvia Mancini, Tatiana Latychevskaia

The investigation of the static and dynamic structural properties of colloidal systems relies on techniques capable of atomic resolution in real space and femtosecond resolution in time. Recently, the cross-correlation function (CCF) analysis of both X-ray ...
