X-ray Imaging

German physicist Wilhelm Röntgen (1845–1923) was experimenting with electrical current when he discovered that a mysterious and invisible "ray" would pass through his flesh but leave an outline of his bones on a screen coated with a metal compound. In 1895, Röntgen made the first durable record of the internal parts of a living human: an "X-ray" image (as it came to be called) of his wife’s hand. Scientists worldwide quickly began their own experiments with X-rays, and by 1900, X-ray was widely...

Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Physics
  • Engineering

Background:

  • X-ray nanotomography resolution has advanced significantly, demanding high sample positioning accuracy.
  • There is a growing need for in situ or operando measurements in X-ray nanotomography.
  • Current systems often lack the capability for controlled environmental conditions during high-resolution tomography.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce and describe an environmental control system for X-ray nanotomography.
  • To enable temperature regulation (room temperature to 850°C) and controlled atmosphere for sample analysis.
  • To facilitate in situ or operando tomographic studies with full 360° rotation.

Main Methods:

  • Development and implementation of an environmental control system for X-ray nanotomography.
  • Integration of the system with the flOMNI microscope at the Swiss Light Source.
  • Modification of the flOMNI microscope to accommodate the environmental control system.
  • Performance validation through tomographic measurements of a nanoporous gold sample.

Main Results:

  • The environmental control system successfully regulates sample temperature from room temperature up to 850°C.
  • Controlled atmospheric composition is maintained during measurements.
  • 360° sample rotation is achievable, enabling complete tomographic reconstruction.
  • Sub-20 nm resolution was demonstrated in tomographic measurements at 50°C and 600°C.

Conclusions:

  • The developed environmental control system significantly enhances the capabilities of X-ray nanotomography.
  • It allows for advanced in situ or operando studies under diverse temperature and atmospheric conditions.
  • The system overcomes missing wedge limitations, providing more complete 3D structural information.
