“…This aspect is very important to fully take advantage of the element analysis capabilities of X-rays, and digital contrast enhancement methods. The disposition of calcium in 0-2 fim section of bone tissue (Kenney et al 1983(Kenney et al , 1985 indeed demonstrates this feature of X-ray microscopy. Theoretical estimates show that at concentrations of above 1 % by weight, elements can be localized by X-ray analysis (Kirz, 1980a, b).…”

“…The experiments described in this paper were done on beam line U1 5 of the ultraviolet ring at the Brookhaven National Synchrotron Light Source. The U1 5 beam line is built around a torodial grating monochromator with a 1-mrad acceptance tunable in the 15-50 A wavelength range (Kenney et al, 1983;Kirz and Rarback, 1985).…”

Contact x-ray microscopy potentially allows living, wet cells to be visualized at a resolution of up to 100 A. Furthermore, differential absorption by specific elements permits the study of the distribution of those elements in biological specimens. In contact x-ray microscopy, soft x-rays (10 A to 100 A) pass through a biological sample and expose an underlying x-ray sensitive polymer (resist), producing an image that reflects the photon absorbance within the specimen. The high penetrating power of soft x-ray enables images to be obtained from specimens up to several microns thick. In this paper, the technique is described, some of the areas currently under study are considered, and biological examples of the use of contact x-ray microscopy are given.

Developments in microscopy using soft x rays (energies between about 100 eV and 2 keV) over the last ten years or so are reviewed. The main advances have been in intense sources, principally synchrotron radiation and plasma sources, and in x-ray optical components such as grazing incidence reflectors, multilayer mirrors and zone plates. The different types of x-ray microscopy are described and images obtained are compared with those from the much better established techniques of electron and optical microscopy. Finally, prospects for the future are discussed.
