Computational microscopy with coherent diffractive imaging and ptychography

Microscopy and crystallography have long served as two foundational pillars of experimental science. Microscopy relies on lenses to visualize local structures, whereas crystallography determines the global atomic arrangement of crystals through diffraction. Over the past two decades, these traditionally distinct methodologies have been unified through the rise of computational microscopy, particularly coherent diffractive imaging (CDI) . . .
