Abstract

Accurate determination of scan positions is essential for achieving high-quality reconstructions in ptychographic imaging. This study presents and demonstrates a method for determining the rotation angle of the scan pattern relative to the detector pixel array using diffraction data. The method is based on the Fourier-Mellin transform and cross-correlation calculation. It can correct rotation errors up to 60deg. High-quality reconstructions were obtained for visible light and electron microscopy datasets, and intricate structures of samples can be revealed. We believe that this refinement method for rotary position errors can be valuable for improving the performance of ptychographic four-dimensional scanning transmission electron microscopy.
