The authors demonstrate multiple reference source Fourier transform holography with soft x rays. This technique extends the detection limit of high resolution lensless imaging by introducing spatial multiplexing to coherent x-ray scattering. In this way, image quality is improved without increasing the radiation exposure to the sample. This technique is especially relevant for recording static images of radiation sensitive samples and for studying spatial dynamics with pulsed light sources. Applying their technique in the weak illumination limit they image a nanoscale test object by detecting ∼2500 photons. The observed enhancement in the signal-to-noise ratio of the image follows the square root of the number of reference sources.
