Figure 13
Absorption (left) and DPC (right) images of a diatom (phytoplankton cell) recorded at 1790 eV photon energy at beamline 2-ID-B at the APS. This image was also obtained with the modified soft X-ray detector. While the specimen is visible in absorption, the DPC image shows considerably more detail. The diagonal line visible in both images is the edge of a silicon nitride window. The horizontal line is caused by a sudden change in X-ray intensity; thus it is almost invisible in the differential measurement. This image was recorded using a 50 nm-outermost-zone-width zone plate, 25 nm steps and 3 ms dwell time.
