5D X-ray Imaging

 

Ultrafast Movies

 

The unique combination of short wavelengths and short pulse durations makes the coherent X-ray light based on high harmonic generation an essential tool for nano and bio science and technology moving forward. This light tool is ideal for dynamic imaging with ultrahigh 3D spatial resolution and ultrahigh temporal resolution. Also, since the elements of the periodic table and their chemical compounds absorb X-ray light at different photon energies, this provides an extra 5th dimensionality for imaging – an element and bond specificity.
