Job description: Modern synchrotron sources are characterized by a high degree of brilliance and spatial coherence of their X-radiation. Radiographic and computer tomography X-ray imaging methods using synchrotron radiation allow for the imaging of the inner microstructure of materials, biological tissues, and micro- and nanosystems with highest spatial resolution.
Work shall be aimed at conceiving a method for the non-destructive three-dimensional imaging of inner micro- and nanostructures in flat, laterally extended samples without any sample preparation being needed.
For this purpose, the so-called nanolaminography shall be developed based on an optimum use of the source and coherence properties of synchrotron radiation sources of the third generation with highest spatial (up to 50 nm) and temporal (range of minutes) resolution.
In contrast to CT, imaging may be carried out in a non-destructive manner not only for samples within the field of view of X-ray cameras, but also for flat objects and components, the inner three-dimensional structures of which extend beyond the field of view of cameras or have any lateral extension.
