We have demonstrated that structures down to 150 nm can be visualized in X-ray projection images using nanofocus X-ray sources. Due to their unlimited depth of focus, they do not possess a limit on the specimen size. This is essential for three-dimensional tomographic imaging of samples with a diameter larger than a few microns. Further simulation studies have shown that optimization of the detector response curve and switching from a reflective X-ray target to a transmission target should allow us to reach sub-100-nm resolutions.
