Imaging soft X-ray microscope at Rits Synchrotron Radiation Center.
An imaging soft X-ray microscope with zone plates has been installed at Rits SR Center (Ritsumeikan University, Kusatsu, Japan). With this microscope, specimens were set in air, which made it possible to investigate the specimens without breaking the vacuum of the microscope. The specimens can be prefocused with an optical microscope. Dry and wet biospecimens in air were observed. A new optical system was designed to improve the resolution.
