Outline of Research at the Start

Recent imaging breakthroughs were triggered by synchrotrons, femtosecond XFELs, and attosecond harmonics [Nobel Prize in Physics 2023]. The next frontier is atomic spatio-temporal resolution (0.05 nm, 24 attoseconds=24e-18s) needed to image quantum samples, e.g. protein electrons entanglement. However, present methods require narrow bandwidth (<1%) and cannot use short pulses (Uncertainty Principle). With our BISER x-ray source, we will demonstrate octave-bandwidth coherent x-ray imaging allowing use of record-short single-cycle x-ray pulses, leading to revolutionary quantum x-ray imaging.
