• Quantum mechanics  probability amplitudes (waves)
• Optics  Young’s double slit experiment, interference
• X-ray (and neutron) scattering
It’s all about probability amplitudes and interference !!!

Coherence  diffraction limited beam or at least with a noticeable coherence length
Coherent beam  Easy in optical regime (OL, collimation, or point source)
T. Young
(1801)
Difficult in the X-ray range (e.g. 3rd gen SR facilities)
Why use X-ray coherence?
One answer: coherent illumination leads to interference effects providing
enhanced sensitivity to structure and dynamics in scattering experiments

First speckle (1962)
10
A speckle pattern is the random intensity pattern observed when light with
sufficient spatial and temporal coherence is scattered by a medium that
introduces random fluctuations of the optical path comparable to the wavelength.
It encodes the exact spatial arrangement of the scattering volume but the phase
must be determined for an inversion to be possible…
Speckle techniques applied in astronomy, metrology, e-, X-ray and light scattering,
and radar imaging. First observation of optical speckle by laser (optical maser)

Speckle pattern. Statistical properties
For a “perfectly” random sample, i.e. independent and random scattering
amplitudes and phase shifts, and fully coherent illumination the speckle
pattern obeys negative exponential statistics:

Outline
Introduction to coherent X-rays
• coherence?
• coherent X-ray scattering, SAXS, WAXS
• speckle & photon statistics
Introduction to XPCS
• Time correlation functions
• 2D XPCS, signal to noise ratio
• Two-times and higher order correlations
XPCS examples (depending on time):
• Polymer gel during gelation (Czakkel et al.)
• Concentrated hard-sphere suspensions (Kwasniewski et al.)
• Surface dynamics of nanoparticle suspensions (Orsi et al.)
