What is a STXM?
• How is it different from an optical microscope?
Scanning Transmission X-ray Microscopy
- Zone plate - OSA - Energy tunability - Polarization control (EPU)- Raster scan - Synchrotron radiation
EPU

• Zone plates– Fresnel diffraction– E-beam litho– Spatial Resolution Limit

• Order Sorting Aperture (OSA)– Requires careful alignment with Zone plate

What is it good for?
• Example 1: Environmental applications
Advanced Light Source Molecular Environmental Science (ALS-MES) Beamline 11.0.2.
