This thesis presents groundbreaking research on novel X-ray imaging methods that revolutionize the study of specimens with small density differences, unveiling their intricate inner structure and density distribution. By harnessing the phase shift of X-rays in a material, we achieve a significant enhancement in image contrast compared to conventional absorption imaging. This thesis offers a comprehensive and practical guide to X-ray phase-contrast imaging, with a strong emphasis on X-ray speckle-based imaging, the most recently developed phase-sensitive technique.
X-ray speckle-based imaging is remarkably simple and robust, requiring only a piece of abrasive paper in addition to the standard X-ray imaging setup. Its compatibility with laboratory X-ray sources makes it an ideal candidate for widespread user adoption across a diverse range of fields. In this thesis, we provide an in-depth overview of the state-of-the-art of X-ray speckle-based imaging and its latest developments. We also explore a wide array of applications, ranging from X-ray optics characterisation to biomedical imaging for 3D virtual histology and geological studies of volcanic rocks. These demonstrations showcase the immense promise of speckle-based imaging in various scientific and industrial applications.
Furthermore, this thesis places the speckle-based technique in the context of other phase-sensitive X-ray imaging methods to assist in the choice of a suitable method for specific applications. As a comprehensive guide and reference work, this thesis aims to empower future users with the knowledge and tools necessary to leverage the full potential of X-ray phase-contrast imaging in their research and development endeavors.
