Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We developed microfluidic environmental cells for femtosecond coherent diffraction imaging, which can observe sample imaging in solution. We proposed and developed a novel design of a microfluidic device for destructive X-ray free-electron laser (XFEL) measurement and performed a demonstration experiment at the Japanese XFEL facility, SACLA. The measured sample for the demonstration was the mixture of gold nanoparticles with two different diameters dispersed in solution. Each gold nanoparticles were modified with small molecules electrically complementary to each other. We obtained the reconstructed image of the assembly of the gold nanoparticles at about sub-10-nm resolution by numerical phase recovery from a measured diffraction pattern. The reconstruction demonstrates the successful imaging of the gold nanoparticle assembly in the microfluidic environmental cell.
