AB  - We present an approach to nanoscale-resolution high-sensitivity imaging of internal material structure under in situ/operando conditions for virtually any sample environment. When bulky or heavy sample environment is required state-of-the-art X-ray imaging techniques, such as scanning and full-field microscopy or holography fail to deliver high-resolution imaging capabilities due to either i) extremely small optics’ working distance for magnification-based methods or ii) the inability to precisely control heavy sample position in the case of lens-less methods. In this work, we address those challenges for a scanning lens-less imaging method called ptychography. Instead of precisely controlling the sample position during raster scan in a focused, confined X-ray beam, we are scanning that beam across the sample. This overcomes the constraints on scanning procedure imposed by sample size/weight and delivers unmatched scanning speed while maintaining high precision of beam position during the scan. We directly applied our approach, showcasing phase contrast nanoimaging with diamond anvil cells, and visualized intricate details of the melting and oxidation of laser-irradiated iron under pressure of 50 GPa.
