Imaging with X-rays, combining suitable focusing or image-forming optics with contrast from absorption, phase or emitted signals. Photon-energy selection can make core-edge chemical contrast accessible, while achievable resolution depends on the optics, detector and measurement geometry.
A focused X-ray probe scans a thin specimen while a detector records transmission. Scanning photon energy across an absorption edge adds local spectroscopic contrast, with spatial resolution set by the probe and scanning performance. Thickness and composition both affect transmission, so an energy stack and suitable references help distinguish them.
