Figure 3
Measured and simulated Fresnel diffraction at a W bar aperture. In the inset, a typical detector image is shown with logarithmic intensity scale. One hundred images were correlated and added up, and then the depicted region of interest (dashed rectangle) was averaged vertically, giving the black squares in the graph. The red curve is a simulation for an ideal point source; the red-to-blue bars show the simulated intensity averaged over the virtual pixel size, for source sizes of 10–64 nm. |
