PS2.4: 3D/4D Imaging
Session co-organisers: Guenter Moebus, Christian Kuebel
Introducing higher dimensions into microscopy in the widest possible sense is at the core of this session. Methods and applications of 3D imaging will comprise tomographic reconstruction schemes to achieve 3D volume representations, and furthermore include non-tomographic 3D techniques, whether based on diffraction, low-depth of focus, or various slicing schemes. The session extends over all radiations and instrumentations with a focus on nanoscale resolutions. Examples could be X-ray/synchrotron techniques, electron microscopy, focused-ion beam, and field-ion atom probe techniques. Cross-disciplinary applications will complement methodology, ranging from inorganic materials science, over polymer structures, to the great variety of nanoobjects, including particles, rods, porous materials and nano-composites.
The fourth dimension aspect of the session invites contributions beyond volume reconstructions, to possibly include time-domain or spectroscopic energy domain as a fourth coordinate. Chemical Mapping tomography is one main aspect, whether by analytical TEM or by Atom Probe, or X-ray absorption, while tomography of dynamic processes could be the second major topic.
