The success of ptychographic imaging experiments strongly depends on achieving high signal-to-noise ratio. This is particularly important in nanoscale imaging experiments when diffraction signals are very weak and the experiments are accompanied by significant parasitic scattering (background), outliers or correlated noise sources. It is also critical when rare events such as cosmic rays, or bad frames caused by electronic glitches or shutter timing malfunction take place. In this paper, we propose a novel iterative algorithm with rigorous analysis that exploits the direct forward model for parasitic noise and sample smoothness to achieve a thorough characterization and removal of structured and random noise. We present a formal description of the proposed algorithm and prove its convergence under mild conditions. Numerical experiments from simulations and real data (both soft and hard X-ray beamlines) demonstrate that the proposed algorithms produce better results when compared to state-of-the-art methods.

Intensity interferometry (II) exploits the second-order correlation to acquire the spatial frequency information of an object, which has been used to observe distant stars since 1950s. However, due to unreliability of employed imaging reconstruction
algorithms, II can only image simple and sparse objects such as double stars. We here develop a method that overcomes this unreliability problem and enables imaging complex objects by combing II and a ptychography iterative algorithm. Different from previous ptychography iterative-type algorithms that work only for diffractive objects using coherence light sources, our method obtains the objects spatial spectrum from the second-order correlation of intensity fluctuation by using an incoherent source, which therefore largely simplifies the imaging process. Furthermore, by introducing loose supports in the ptychography algorithm, a high-quality image can be recovered without knowing the precise size and position of the scanning illumination, which is a strong requirement for traditional ptychography iterative algorithm.
Biominerals such as seashells, corals skeletons, bone, and enamel are optically anisotropic crystalline materials with unique nano- and micro-scale organization that translates into exceptional macroscopic mechanical properties, providing inspiration
for engineering new and superior biomimetic structures. Here we use particles of Seriatopora aculeata coral skeleton as a model and demonstrate, for the first time, x-ray linear dichroic ptychography. We map the aragonite (CaCO3) crystal c-axis orientations in coral skeleton with 35 nm spatial resolution. Linear dichroic phase imaging at the O K-edge energy shows strong polarization-dependent contrast and reveals the presence of both narrow (< 35{deg}) and wide (> 35{deg}) c-axis angular spread in sub-micrometer coral particles. These x-ray ptychography results were corroborated using 4D scanning transmission electron nano-diffraction on the same particles. Evidence of co-oriented but disconnected corallite sub-domains indicates jagged crystal boundaries consistent with formation by amorphous nanoparticle attachment. Looking forward, we anticipate that x-ray linear dichroic ptychography can be applied to study nano-crystallites, interfaces, nucleation and mineral growth of optically anisotropic materials with sub-ten nanometers spatial resolution in three dimensions.
We present a parameter retrieval method which combines ptychography and additional prior knowledge about the object. The proposed method is applied to two applications: (1) parameter retrieval of small particles from Fourier ptychographic dark field
measurements; (2) parameter retrieval of retangule with real-space ptychography. The influence of Poisson noise is discussed in the second part of the paper. The Cram{e}r Rao Lower Bound in both two applications is computed and Monte Carlo analysis is used to verify the calculated lower bound. With the computation results we report the lower bound for various noise levels and the correlation of particles in Application 1. For Application 2 the correlation of parameters of the rectangule is discussed.
Incoherent Fourier ptychography (IFP) is a newly developed super-resolution method, where accurate knowledge of translation positions is essential for image reconstruction.To release this limitation, we propose a preprocessing algorithm capable of ex
tracting translation positions of the structure light directly from raw images of IFP, termed translation position extracting (TPE). TPE mainly involves two steps. First, the speckle parts mixed in the acquired intensities, in which the illumination motion is encoded, are isolated by intensity averaging and division. Then the cross-correlations of the speckle dataset are computed to determine the shift positions. TPE-IFP improves the previous IFP by removal of the requirement for prior knowledge of translation positions. Its effectiveness is demonstrated by obtaining high-quality super-resolution images in absence of location information in both simulations and experiments. By further relaxing the practical conditions, the proposed TPE may accelerate the applications of IFP. What is more, as a preprocessing approach, TPE might also contribute to the estimation of pattern positions for the similar speckle-based imaging.
Imaging the magnetic structure of a material is essential to understanding the influence of the physical and chemical microstructure on its magnetic properties. Magnetic imaging techniques, however, have up to now been unable to probe 3D micrometer-s
ized systems with nanoscale resolution. Here we present the imaging of the magnetic domain configuration of a micrometre-thick FeGd multilayer with hard X-ray dichroic ptychography at energies spanning both the Gd L3 edge and the Fe K edge, providing a high spatial resolution spectroscopic analysis of the complex X-ray magnetic circular dichroism. With a spatial resolution reaching 45 nm, this advance in hard X-ray magnetic imaging is the first step towards the investigation of buried magnetic structures and extended three-dimensional magnetic systems at the nanoscale.
