Theoretical and experimental analysis of the modulated phase grating X-ray interferometer by Hunter Meyer, Joyoni Dey, Sydney Carr, Kyungmin Ham, Leslie G. Butler, Kerry M. Dooley, Ivan Hidrovo, Markus Bleuel, Tamas Varga, Joachim Schulz, Thomas Beckenbach, Konradin Kaiser

“…Abstract X-ray grating interferometry allows for the simultaneous acquisition of attenuation, differential-phase contrast, and dark-field images, resulting from X-ray attenuation, refraction, and small-angle scattering, respectively. The modulated phase grating (MPG) interferometer is a recently developed grating interferometry system capable of generating a directly resolvable interference pattern using a relatively large period grating envelope function that is sampled at a pitch that is small enough that X-ray spatial coherence can be achieved by using a microfocus X-ray source or G0 grating. …”
