Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We developed high-resolution coherent X-ray diffraction imaging techniques using focused hard X-ray free-electron laser pulses at SACLA. We performed the coherent X-ray diffraction imaging analysis of nanoparticles, allowing us to analyze the size distribution of particles as well as the electron density projection of individual particles. We measured 1000 single-shot coherent X-ray diffraction patterns of shape-controlled Ag nanocubes and Au/Ag nanoboxes, and estimated the edge length from the speckle size of the coherent diffraction patterns. We then reconstructed the two-dimensional electron density projection with sub-10-nm resolution from selected coherent diffraction patterns. We established a scheme for the complementary use of XFEL at SACLA and synchrotron X-rays at SPring-8
