About
MAX IV and LINXS welcome you to a two-day workshop on 12-13 Oct 2026 with lectures and hands-on training on PtyPy, the open-source software package for Ptychography. The workshop will be held at LINXS, Lund, Sweden.
In the field of X-ray imaging, ptychography has enabled high resolution, quantitative imaging, surpassing the restrictions set by lens-based optics. Modern ptychography combines a scanning microscopy set up with a 2D detector to record the full diffraction pattern. Overlapping illuminations then provide the boundary conditions for computational reconstruction of both amplitude and phase of the real space image. PtyPy is the leading software for Ptychography data treatment and is developed and updated by experts across the world.
The workshop aims to
Teach the basics of ptychographic reconstruction, covering different methods and algorithms.
Provide hands-on training on how to use existing workflows in PtyPy for your high-performance ptychographic reconstructions and how to create your own workflow within the PtyPy framework.
Share recent developments in PtyPy and discuss future challenges and plans.
