Forward modeling method for microstructure reconstruction using x-ray diffraction microscopy: Single-crystal verification
We describe and illustrate a forward modeling method for quantitatively reconstructing the geometry and orientation of microstructural features inside of bulk samples from high-energy x-ray diffraction microscopy data. Data sets comprise charge-coupled device images of Bragg diffracted beams originating from individual grains in a thin planar section of sample. Our analysis approach first reduc...
متن کاملRoom temperature femtosecond X-ray diffraction of photosystem II microcrystals.
Most of the dioxygen on earth is generated by the oxidation of water by photosystem II (PS II) using light from the sun. This light-driven, four-photon reaction is catalyzed by the Mn(4)CaO(5) cluster located at the lumenal side of PS II. Various X-ray studies have been carried out at cryogenic temperatures to understand the intermediate steps involved in the water oxidation mechanism. However,...
متن کاملComparison of focusing optics for femtosecond X-ray diffraction
We characterize and compare four different types of focusing optics for hard X-rays, suitable for femtosecond X-ray diffraction experiments, using a tabletop femtosecond laser-based plasma source. We demonstrate a 23μm focus with a toroidally bent Ge single crystal. A maximum flux of 7 × 108 photons/(s mm2) is generated in a 32μm focus using a multi-layer mirror. An elliptical glass capillary y...
متن کاملSerial femtosecond X-ray diffraction of enveloped virus microcrystals
Serial femtosecond crystallography (SFX) using X-ray free-electron lasers has produced high-resolution, room temperature, time-resolved protein structures. We report preliminary SFX of Sindbis virus, an enveloped icosahedral RNA virus with ∼700 Å diameter. Microcrystals delivered in viscous agarose medium diffracted to ∼40 Å resolution. Small-angle diffuse X-ray scattering overlaid Bragg peaks ...
متن کاملIntroducing an Optimized Method for Obtaining X-ray Diffraction Patterns of Biological Tissues
Introduction Individual X-Ray diffraction patterns of biological tissues are obtained via interference of coherent scattering with their electrons. Many scientists have distinguished normal and cancerous breast tissue, bone density, and urinary stone types using the X-Ray diffraction patterns resulting from coherent scattering. The goal of this study was to introduce an optimized method for obt...
