High-background X-ray single particle imaging enabled by holographic enhancement with 2D crystals
We computationally explore a modified SPI technique based on holographic enhancement from a strongly scattering 2D crystal lattice. The Bragg peaks enable structure retrieval even for background levels up to 10× higher, opening the path for SPI at synchrotron sources and near-native conditions…
