Coherent diffractive imaging at free-electron lasers promises to allow the reconstruction of the three-dimensional molecular structures of isolated particles at atomic resolution [1]. However, because of the typical low signal to noice ratio, this requires the collection of a large amount of diffraction patterns. Since every intercepted particle is destroyed by the intense x-ray pulse, a new and preferably identical sample particle has to be delivered into every pulse. Currently the inefficient delivery of particles and the correspondingly low number of strong diffraction patterns collected during typical beam times is one of the major limiting factors. With the aid of numerical simulations we developed new aerodynamic devices, such as aerodynamic lenses and buffer-gas cells, to produce cold and high-density beams of nanoparticles, e.g., viruses. We benchmark developed injectors in our aerosol beam characterisation setup, using novel laser-based particle detection schemes.
