Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

New developments in structure analysis based on diffraction, scattering and interferometry of matter waves. Topics include: Approaches to solve the phase problem in diffraction data (ptychography, oversampling), methods for a direct imaging of structure, correction of lens aberrations in charged particle optics, approaches to reduce radiation damage, statistical approaches to extract information from large noisy data sets.

Assessment and permitted materials

Presentation by seminar participant and discussion.

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

Understanding of the basic physical principles and the mathematical background of image formation from the scattering of electrons, neutrons, photons or other particles, by an insight into the current research.

Examination topics

Presentations by the seminar participants (with help during the preparation) and subsequent discussion.
