X10 - Electron Ptychography: Experimental Considerations and Data Analysis

In this short course, we will cover the theory and practice of electron ptychography, with emphasis on hands-on tutorials utilizing open-source codes to reconstruct experimental ptychography data. 

Topics within this Short Course will include:

  • Theory of Measuring Potentials and Fields in STEM 
  • Methods for deep sub-ångström resolution, three-dimensional reconstruction using multislice ptychography, and measurement of magnetic fields 
  • Overview of electron detector technologies for ptychography data collection 
  • Guidelines for acquiring, calibrating, and evaluating high-quality ptychography datasets 
  • Hands-on tutorials with the latest open-source ptychography reconstruction codes, using publicly available datasets 
  • Quantification of ptychography results and recognition of common artifacts.

Separate registration required — Registration information coming January 2026.
