High-resolution x-ray diffraction pattern of a buried nanostructure; using a series of such patterns, 3D images of nonperiodic structures are reconstructed with a 50-nm resolution. The technique used could lead to x-ray diffraction microscopy capable of imaging a single biomolecule at near-atomic resolution.
