Sven Weerdenburg joined ImPhys as PhD student

Sven Weerdenburg will work on Lensless Imaging of 3D Nanostructures with Soft X-Rays as part of a consortium LINX. This methodology should create opportunities in high-resolution metrology which can be beneficial for example in the semiconductor industry. However, there are no imaging optics (in general) in this wavelength regime, thus lensless imaging will be applied instead. In lensless imaging the conventional lens-system is replaced by an iterative algorithm which computes an image from measured diffraction patterns. An experimental setup will be built here in Delft to demonstrate the concept. His supervisor is Wim Coene.
