Such multi-scale imaging capabilities are critical to addressing important questions in a variety of research areas such as materials science and engineering, chemistry, and solid state physics. Towards this eventual goal, the following key aspects are demonstrated: 1) high-energy Bragg coherent diffraction imaging (HE-BCDI) of sub-micron-scale crystallites at 52 keV at current third-generation synchrotron light sources, 2) HE-BCDI performed in conjunction with far-field high-energy diffraction microscopy (ff-HEDM) on the grains of a polycrystalline sample in an smoothly integrated manner, and 3) the orientation information of an ensemble of grains obtained via ff-HEDM used to perform complementary HE-BCDI on multiple Bragg reflections of a single targeted grain. These steps lay the foundation for integration of HE-BCDI, which typically provides a spatial resolution tens of nanometers, into a broad suite of well-established HEDM methods, extending HEDM beyond the few-micrometer resolution bound and into the nanoscale, and positioning the approach to take full advantage of the orders-of-magnitude improvement of X-ray coherence expected at fourth generation light sources presently being built and commissioned worldwide.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/1903.11815v2","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/1903.11815v2.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":"high-energy-coherent-x-ray-diffraction","repo_url":"https://github.com/siddharth-maddali/HEBCDIdatasets","is_official":0,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"tf","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
