摘要

Ptychography is a computational imaging technique that operates across multiple wavelength regimes, from electron (picometres) to X-ray (~0.1 nm), extreme ultraviolet (~10 nm) and visible light (micrometres). By reconstructing both amplitude and phase from diffraction patterns, ptychography enables high-resolution, quantitative imaging without conventional limitations imposed by lens-based optics. Ptychography has enabled advances across a range of scales: achieving deep-sub-angstrom resolution with electron microscopy, becoming an indispensable tool at X-ray synchrotron facilities worldwide and overcoming the trade-offs between resolution and field-of-view in optical imaging. This Primer provides a unified treatment of ptychography across these wavelength regimes. First, we discuss theoretical foundations, reconstruction algorithms, experimental considerations and wavelength-specific challenges. We then give examples of raw and processed data from various configurations and wavelengths. Next, we highlight key applications of ptychography in life sciences, materials science and industry. We also discuss data standards, open-source software implementations and best practices for ensuring reproducibility across different wavelength regimes. Finally, we consider limitations and future opportunities for ptychography. Together with accompanying datasets and code implementations, this Primer aims to serve newcomers and experienced practitioners in the field, facilitating broader adoption of ptychography across different disciplines.
