Mathematical method sharpens X-ray images at the nanoscale

The Brief

  • An international research collaboration developed a mathematical method for producing higher-quality 3D X-ray images.
  • The method is applied to X-ray nanotomography, a technique for three-dimensional imaging at the nanoscale.
  • The source describes the image quality as significantly higher than previously possible.

Why it matters

Sharper nanoscale 3D X-ray images could improve structural analysis in materials and life-science imaging, where resolution limits current measurements.
