Extinction effects in x-ray holographic imaging with internal reference

Abstract

Secondary extinction effects in x-ray holography with internal atomic reference are examined in the frame of multiple-scattering power transfer equations for a mosaic crystal. The calculations are compared with experimental holograms of an imperfect Cu3Au single crystal measured using x-ray fluorescence and total electron yields. It is shown that extinction effects in imperfect crystals can influence reconstructed real-space images in x-ray atom-resolving holography.
