Experiments at SOLEIL synchrotron
In this experiment, performed at the Nanoscopium beamline at SOLEIL synchrotron, we explored a novel approach to X-ray imaging by using a X-ray diffuser to generate a pseudo-thermal light source with tunable coherence. By conducting the experiment at a synchrotron, we were able to harness a bright X-ray beam to study how partially coherent light interacts with structured objects. This allowed us to take the first steps toward demonstrating lensless imaging techniques that could work with partially incoherent light sources, opening new possibilities for high-resolution imaging in more accessible settings.
We sincerely thank the entire SOLEIL team for their invaluable support and for providing such a welcoming and collaborative atmosphere throughout the experiment!
