It is now established that the 3D structure of homogeneous nanocrystals can be recovered from in-line hologram of single projections. The method builds on a quantitative contrast interpretation of electron exit wave functions. Since simulated exit wave functions of single and bilayers of graphene reveal the atomic structure of carbon-based materials with sufficient resolution, we explore theoretically how the approach can be expanded beyond periodic carbon-based materials to include non-periodic molecular structures. We show here theoretically that the 3D atomic structure of randomly oriented oleic acid molecules can be recovered from a single projection.
