Real-Time Atomic-Resolution Electron Phase Imaging without Probe Calibration via Ptychography-Supervised Learning

Read the original on arXiv Computer Vision →

The paper introduces a ptychography‑supervised learning framework that transforms 4D‑STEM data into real‑time atomic‑resolution phase images. By training a compact model on physics‑constrained reference phase maps from a single AuPd dataset, the method predicts local phase patches directly from diffraction patterns without probe calibration or iterative optimization. The resulting workflow achieves an online latency of ~0.27 ms per probe position, a 1,000‑fold speed‑up over GPU‑accelerated ePIE, and maintains atomic‑scale lattice contrast while generalizing across materials, defocus conditions, and instruments.

AutoMat: Enabling Automated Crystal Structure Reconstruction from Microscopy via Agentic Tool Use

arXiv:2505. 12650v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Reconstructing atomistic crystal structures from a single noisy STEM projection is an ill-posed inverse problem: multiple lattices can explain similar contrast, and purely feed-forward models cannot verify physical validity.

A unified self-supervised framework for single-frame Fresnel CDI and overlapped ptychography

The paper introduces a self‑supervised neural network that unifies single‑frame Fresnel coherent diffraction imaging (CDI) and overlapped ptychography. By using a fixed, pre‑estimated probe and optimizing with a Poisson negative log‑likelihood objective, the method reconstructs object patches from either a single diffraction frame or multiple overlapping measurements, achieving high SSIM scores and a ten‑fold improvement in photon‑dose efficiency. Demonstrations on synthetic patterns and real datasets from APS and LCLS show robust, high‑throughput reconstructions, with a 36× speedup over iterative solvers for a 10,304‑frame workload.

STEMGym: Benchmarking Sequential Decision-Making under Dose Budgets in Autonomous Electron Microscopy

A central premise of autonomous scientific imaging is that smarter navigation, whether Bayesian, RL-based, or otherwise adaptive, is the principal lever for sample-efficient acquisition. We present evidence to the contrary in scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM), an atomic-resolution imaging modality whose every measurement deposits damaging electron dose.
