However, the complexity of 4D-STEM data processing necessitates an intuitive graphical user interface software for researchers. In this regard, we have developed 4D-Explorer, an open-source, lightweight and extensible software for processing 4D-STEM data. It offers a visual and interactive workflow, including data preparation, calibration, image reconstruction and generating quantitative results. Furthermore, during calibration, our software includes a novel algorithm for rotational offset correction that uses a defocused 4D-STEM dataset and its axial bright field image, which has lower experimental requirements than conventional methods. We anticipate that 4D-Explorer will help researchers harness the capabilities of 4D-STEM technology.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2306.08365v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2306.08365v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"4d-explorer-a-visual-software-for-4d-stem","repo_url":"https://github.com/manifoldshu/fourdexplorer","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
