I13-1 is a multimodal imaging beamline. Based on computational and coherent imaging methods, such as ptychography, it provides a suite of complementary nanoscale imaging modalities.
Ptychography is the principal imaging method at I13-1 and the beamline has a dedictated multimodal end-station. The beamline provides both transmission and Bragg geometries as well as simultaneous acquisition of additional signals such as X-ray Fluorescence (XRF).
Data collection times vary depening on the sample composition and size as well as the desired reolsution. For resolutions just below 100nm a rough estimation is as follows:
Field of View | Acquisition time (2D) | Acquisition time (3D) |
---|---|---|
10um | >1 sec | >1 hour |
200um | >20 sec | >12 hours |
I13-1 is actively developing high-speed ptychographic imaging, with a series of ongoing developments in this area. Some details can be found here.
