Abstract

Progress in the lensless reconstruction of aberration-free three-dimensional images from microdiffraction electron and X-ray diffraction patterns is reviewed. The hybrid input-output algorithm of Fienup has been successful recently in phasing both experimental X-ray and electron diffraction patterns from isolated nanostructures, including a single nanotube. The use of iterative phasing methods is proposed to reduce the number of HREM images needed at high tilts for cryomicroscopy of proteins. A new iterative algorithm has been described which does not require an independent estimate of the boundary of the unknown object.
