Abstract
Lensless coherent x-ray imaging techniques have great potential for high-resolution imaging of magnetic systems with a variety of in-situ perturbations. Despite many investigations of ferromagnets, extending these techniques to the study of other magnetic materials, primarily antiferromagnets, is lacking. Here, we demonstrate the first (to our knowledge) study of an antiferromagnet using holographic imaging through the 'holography with extended reference by autocorrelation linear differential operation' technique. Energy-dependent contrast with both linearly and circularly polarized x-rays are demonstrated. Antiferromagnetic domains and topological textures are studied in the presence of applied magnetic fields, demonstrating quasi-cyclic domain reconfiguration up to 500 mT.
