This work demonstrates a combination technique of X-ray ptychography and the extended X-ray absorption fine structure (ptychography-EXAFS) method, which can determine the interatomic distances of bulk materials at the nanoscale. In the high-resolution ptychography-EXAFS method, it is necessary to use high-intense coherent X-rays with a uniform wavefront in a wide energy range, hence a ptychographic measurement system installed with advanced Kirkpatrick–Baez mirror focusing optics is developed and its performance is evaluated. Ptychographic diffraction patterns of micrometre-size MnO particles are collected by using this system at 139 energies between 6.504 keV and 7.114 keV including the Mn K and then the of MnO is derived from the reconstructed images. By analyzing the spectra obtained from a 48 nm × 48 nm region, the nanoscale bond lengths of the first and second coordination shells of MnO are determined. The present approach has great potential to elucidate the unclarified relationship among the morphology, electronic state and atomic arrangement of inhomogeneous bulk materials with high spatial resolution.

1. Introduction
The extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS), i.e. the oscillatory modulation of the on the high-energy side of an X-ray is used for probing the interatomic distance and of X-ray absorbing atoms in materials without long-range order. In particular, owing to the availability of highly brilliant synchrotron X-rays, the technique has been successfully applied to various forms of matter: gases, liquids, solutions, nanoparticles, polycrystalline and amorphous materials, contributing to great progress in chemistry and materials science (Teo, 1986; Eisenberger & Kincaid, 1978). One of the most important targets of spectroscopy are heterogeneous functional materials whose local structures are not uniform at the nanoscale. Most data, however, are taken as a macroscopic average over the entire illumination field, which is typically of the order of millimetres. The nanoscale structural inhomogeneity is averaged in the conventional approaches, though knowledge of the spatial distribution of structural differences at the nanoscale is of considerable importance for designing better functional materials.
The combination of et al., 2014, 2015, 2018; Segura-Ruiz et al., 2011; Martínez-Criado et al., 2014a,b). Here the spatial resolution is, in principle, restricted by the focal spot size, namely the fabrication quality of the X-ray lens, which is approaching its technical limitation. An alternative method of determining the atomic arrangement with a much higher spatial resolution is electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS) performed in an aberration-corrected (TEM) system (Egerton, 2009). In TEM-EELS, an extended energy-loss fine structure (EXELFS) likewise offers structural information based on an analogous theory to However, the sample must be thinned to 10 nm due to the small of electrons.
spectroscopy and X-ray microscopy is expected to facilitate the study of structural variation inside bulk matter with nanoscale spatial resolution. Thus far, scanning transmission X-ray microscopy (STXM) has been used for analysis (TakaoX-ray ptychography, which is a scanning type of lensless imaging using coherent X-rays, is a promising approach to achieving high spatial resolution beyond the limitation imposed by the X-ray optics since the resolution is determined by the maximum angular extent of the scattered photons (Rodenburg et al., 2007; Thibault et al., 2008). A ptychographic dataset, comprising multiple coherent X-ray diffraction patterns recorded with a step width smaller than the illumination size, produces sufficient redundancy for iteratively solving the inversion problem to recover a complex transmission function of a specimen. Furthermore, a complex-valued illumination field of incident X-rays can also be determined owing to the development of the phase retrieval algorithm (Maiden & Rodenburg, 2009; Thibault et al., 2009). Recently, the X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) has been derived from the reconstructed complex transmission functions in both soft and hard X-ray regimes (Beckers et al., 2011; Shapiro et al., 2014; Yu et al., 2015, 2018; Wise et al., 2016; Farmand et al., 2017; Hirose et al., 2017, 2018, 2019), i.e. ptychography-XAFS, which provides chemical and magnetic information at the nanoscale. However, ptychography-XAFS experiments have been limited to the X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) region owing to experimental difficulties.
Kirkpatrick–Baez (KB) mirrors, i.e. a pair of one-dimensional focusing mirrors with an elliptic surface, are suitable focusing optics for spectromicroscopy experiments because of their achromatic property and high reflectivity. However, both the wavefront and focal position are sensitive to variations of the incidence angle owing to the comatic aberration (Matsuyama et al., 2006), which would be a crucial problem in the ptychography-EXAFS method since it requires long measurement times. To suppress the positional drift of the focused beam, a nanopositioning system installed with KB mirrors with a short working distance has been developed at the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (Villar et al., 2018). However, the setup often limits the application, requiring a large space for the sample in cases such as in situ measurements. To provide focused coherent X-rays with a uniform wavefront in a wide energy range, advanced KB (AKB) mirror focusing optics with a long working distance are promising as illumination optics. AKB mirrors consist of a pair of one-dimensional focusing mirrors with elliptic and hyperbolic surfaces, i.e. one-dimensional Wolter mirrors, which can greatly suppress the comatic aberration (Kodama et al., 1996). Recently, high-resolution full-field imaging in the hard X-ray region with long-term stability was reported (Matsuyama et al., 2017). Use of AKB mirrors as the focusing optics is expected to provide long-term stability also in scanning microscopy. This is important in time-consuming measurements such as the ptychography-EXAFS method.
In this study, we developed a ptychographic measurement system with AKB mirrors installed as illumination optics and evaluated its performance. Then, we performed ptychography-EXAFS measurements on micrometre-size MnO particles using this system. In this article, we determine the interatomic distances of the first and second coordination shells with sub-50 nm spatial resolution, and then quantitatively evaluate the noise level of ptychography-EXAFS and, finally, we compare this technique with other X-ray micro/nanospectroscopy techniques.
2. Performance test of AKB mirror optics for X-ray ptychography
The design parameters of the AKB mirrors (JTEC Corporation) are summarized in Table 1. The working distance is 0.45 m. The mirror figures were fabricated on Si substrates by computer-controlled elastic emission machining (Yamauchi et al., 2002). The figure error is less than 2 nm peak-to-valley, and the surface roughness is less than 0.3 nm root mean square. No surface coating is performed on these mirrors. X-ray energies of up to 10 keV can be utilized with 90% reflectivity for a single reflection of the Si surface. The reflectivity of the AKB mirrors drops to 66% at 10 keV since the mirrors involve four reflections.

The performance test of the AKB mirror optics was carried out at the SPring-8 BL29XUL beamline (Tamasaku et al., 2001). A schematic of the experimental setup is given in Fig. 1. The distance between the light source and the Si (111) double-crystal monochromator is 43 m. The distance between the monochromator and the sample is 55 m. A slit with a 10 µm × 30 µm aperture was installed 50 m upstream of the sample plane to offer fully coherent X-rays. Incident X-rays were monochromated to 6.5 keV, and then two-dimensionally focused onto a sample placed at the focal plane. In this setup, the incident at the sample plane was approximately 2 × 108 photons s−1. A 200 nm-thick Ta Siemens star pattern was raster-scanned in 15 × 15 points with a 200 nm step size. Far-field coherent X-ray diffraction patterns were captured by an in-vacuum hybrid pixelated detector EIGER 1M (Dectris) with a 75 µm × 75 µm pixel size (Johnson et al., 2014). An 88 µm-thick semitransparent Si beamstop with an intensity transmittance of 0.1 for 6.5 keV X-rays was installed in front of the detector to attenuate the transmitted direct beam and effectively increase the of diffraction intensity. In this experimental setup, the pixel size of the reconstructed image was 7.6 nm.
To evaluate the positional stability of the X-ray beam spot focused by the AKB mirrors, the positional correction method was performed in the ptychography measurement (Takahashi et al., 2011). Fig. 2(a) shows the time dependence of the focal position along the horizontal and vertical directions. The peak-to-peak position was 43.3 nm in the horizontal direction and 65.1 nm in the vertical direction over 7 h. The average amounts of drift at each scan were 1.9 nm in the horizontal direction and 5.0 nm in the vertical direction. Figs. 2(b) and 2(c) show the sample and probe images, respectively, reconstructed by the ePIE algorithm (Maiden & Rodenburg, 2009). The smallest 50 nm structure in the test sample was sharply resolved. The results show that the present measurement system has sufficient stability for high-resolution X-ray ptychography even with the long-working-distance mirror optics.
3. Ptychography-EXAFS measurement of MnO particles
3.1. Experiment and reconstruction
A ptychography-EXAFS experiment was performed to determine the bond lengths of MnO particles. The geometrical parameters of the beamline including the AKB mirror focusing system were the same as those in the performance test. The MnO particles were dispersed in ethanol solution, then the suspension was dropped on a 500 nm-thick Si3N4 membrane chip (Norcada) and dried in air. An FE-SEM (HITACHI, S-4800) image of the prepared sample is shown in Fig. 3(a). Coherent X-rays were tuned to 139 energies between 6.504 keV and 7.114 keV including the Mn K (6.539 keV), and the smallest energy gap was 1 eV in the vicinity of the The particles were scanned over 14 × 14 points with 250 nm separation and 4.0 s exposure. Under these experimental conditions, the total number of measured diffraction patterns was 27 224. The total acquisition time was almost 3 days, including the determination of the scan area at each X-ray energy, the energy scan and experimental interruptions. Note that the AKB mirrors were not realigned during the measurement.
To reconstruct weak et al., 2017). Fig. 3(b) shows one of the ptychographic diffraction patterns at 6.504 keV. The region of interest of the diffraction patterns was adjusted to uniformly set the pixel size in real space to 12 nm at all X-ray energies. In the image reconstruction, the initial object functions were unity at all X-ray energies, and the initial probe functions were the ideal wavefield calculated using the parameters of the AKB mirrors. The dispersion relation involves an integral with an infinite interval. To suppress the calculation error by the finite interval integral of the experimentally obtainable spectra, the dispersion constraint was applied every 100 iterations. In the constraint, spline interpolation was applied when converting the spectra. This procedure was repeated until the sample and probe functions were reconstructed with good convergence at all X-ray energies. The absorption image μt(r, E), i.e. the two-dimensional distribution of is defined as
signals in the hard X-ray region, the ePIE algorithm with the dispersion relation as an additional pixelwise constraint is effective for the quantitative reconstruction (Hirosewhere T(r, E) is the complex transmission function of the sample, r is the real-space coordinate and E is the X-ray energy.
3.2. Results
Fig. 3(c) shows the reconstructed μt and phase images of the sample at 6.504 keV, 6.552 keV and 7.114 keV, which show good morphological agreement with the FE-SEM image in Fig. 3(a). The intensity profiles of the probe functions are also presented in Fig. 3(d). The presence of the absorption peak of MnO was clearly confirmed at 6.552 keV, whereas clear contrast is not observed in the phase images since the phase spectrum does not show a peak at the three energies. The full-period spatial resolution was estimated to be 43.6 nm by phase retrieval transfer function (PRTF) analysis (Chapman et al., 2006) at 6.552 keV as shown in Fig. 3(e).
Fig. 4(a) shows an enlarged μt map of the thickest MnO particle (the upper-right particle in the FE-SEM image) at 6.552 keV. Figs. 4(b) and 4(c) show spatially resolved and phase spectra, respectively, which were extracted from a 720 nm × 720 nm or 48 nm × 48 nm region. Clear energy dispersion is observed in not only the absorption spectra but also the phase spectra. analysis was performed using the Ifeffit program (Athena and Artemis) (version 0.9.25; Ravel & Newville, 2005). First, the background subtraction and normalization of the raw spectra were performed using the Athena program, then the k3-weighted functions were calculated as presented in Fig. 4(d). The functions between 3.0 Å−1 and 10.0 Å−1 in k-space were converted to radial distribution functions (RDFs) in R-space as shown in Fig. 4(e). Two peaks representing the first Mn—O coordination shell and the second Mn—Mn coordination shell are recognized. At first, curve-fitting analysis of the function at position (i) for the reference data was carried out in the range 1.1–3.3 Å in R-space in consideration of the single scattering of the first and second shells. In this fitting analysis, the coordination numbers were set to 6 and 12, respectively, on the basis of the of the MnO particles. The experimental curves showed good agreement with the fitted curves in both k-space and R-space. The results of the analysis at position (i) are given in Table 2. Here, the reference interatomic distances determined by X-ray diffraction are 2.22 Å for the first-neighbor Mn—O bond and 3.14 Å for the second-neighbor Mn—Mn bond (Sasaki et al., 1980). Next, the interatomic distances of nanoscale at positions (ii)–(iv) were analyzed in the same k and R regions using the predetermined S0 2 and ΔE as shown in Table 3. All the estimated interatomic distances are similar to the reference values. For simultaneous determination of the and Debye–Waller factor, further improvement of the signal-to-noise ratio with a higher-energy range is necessary.

3.3. Discussion
It was reported by Belli et al. (1980) that a pre-edge structure appeared in the MnO XANES spectrum. The intensity of the pre-edge peak, which is sensitive to the structural symmetry, is less than 10% of that of the white line. Fig. 5(a) shows an enlarged view of the XANES spectra reconstructed by the ptychography-EXAFS method. It is difficult to completely distinguish the pre-edge structures from the noise level. The dominant noise source in the ptychography-EXAFS method is photon shot noise. The noise level in the absorption image is determined by the root mean square error outside the sample area where μt is zero independent of the X-ray energy as follows,
where S represents the sample area (i.e. the support), M represents the number of pixels outside the support area and N represents the number of the X-ray energy. The support area was determined by the 0 rad threshold of the 5-pixel blurred phase image at 6.504 keV as shown in Fig. 5(b). The noise level was determined to be 0.013, which is equivalent to the signal level of the pre-edge peak of MnO.
To accurately reconstruct the weak et al., 2011). Furthermore, the structure of a single nanowire was also determined with 100 nm spatial resolution (Segura-Ruiz et al., 2011). This approach can be applied to the ptychography-EXAFS method by introducing a fluorescence X-ray detector, in which the spatial resolution of a fluorescence image can be improved by deconvoluting the reconstructed probe intensity (Vine et al., 2012; Deng et al., 2017), then high-resolution fluorescence spectra are in principle obtained. Such nanoscale fluorescence spectra would be helpful information to improve the signal-to-noise ratio of ptychography-EXAFS data by using the spectra as a spectral constraint, even though the spatial resolution of the ptychograhy is finer than that of the deconvoluted fluorescence map.
signals such as the pre-edge structure and/or at a higher energy, further improvement of the signal-to-noise ratio of the nanoscale spectrum is required. Fluorescence detection is frequently used to obtain the weak signals with high sensitivity from dilute and thin samples. In an STXM system using a micrometre-sized beam focused by KB mirrors, the analysis of a micrometre-sized single catalyst particle was performed (TadaCurrently, the available
of incident X-rays for the ptychography-XAFS method is limited for the present synchrotron light source since X-ray ptychography experiments require highly coherent X-rays. In near-future synchrotron facilities, the coherent X-ray will be increased by a few orders of magnitude, which will open up the possibility of visualization of spatiotemporal chemical reactions and structural heterogeneities at an unprecedented high spatial resolution.4. Conclusions
In this study, we expanded the X-ray energy range used for the ptychography-XAFS method to the
region to determine interatomic distances at the nanoscale. To provide stable X-ray illumination in the time-consuming ptychography-EXAFS method, a ptychographic measurement system equipped with AKB mirrors as focusing optics was developed. In the present setup, the accumulated drift was suppressed to 43.3 nm in the horizontal direction and 65.1 nm in the vertical direction for 7 h. To further improve the positional stability within the setup, the temperature in our apparatus must be controlled with a higher precision.The ptychography-EXAFS measurement of MnO particles was carried out using the Mn K-absorption edge. Image recovery was successfully demonstrated with sub-50 nm spatial resolution without mirror realignment over 3 days, and then the nanoscale spectra were obtained. The bond lengths of the first Mn—O coordination shell and the second Mn—Mn coordination shell showed good agreement with the reference bond lengths. The noise level of the presented ptychography-EXAFS method was equivalent to the signal level of the pre-edge peak of MnO. Probe deconvolution of the fluorescence map was proposed as a method for improving the signal-to-noise ratio of ptychography-EXAFS.
The ptychography-EXAFS method has great potential to correlate the interatomic distance,
chemical state, symmetry and surface morphology in real space with high spatial resolution. We believe that the present approach provides a novel opportunity to investigate complex systems such as catalysts, batteries, rubber, magnetic materials and nanoparticles in biological specimens.Acknowledgements
