A julia library to read and display SPM (scanning probe microscopy) images. Currently, Nanonis and GXSM files are supported.
The commands are somewhat similar to the ones in the respective python version imagex.
Install from the Julia package registry:
pkg> add SpmImagesusing SpmImages
using Plots # needs to be manually imported for plotting functions
# load an SPM image
ima = load_image("Image_445.sxm")
# Plot a specific image channel directly from the image
plot_channel(ima, "frequency shift")
# Get a channel as 2D data and directly plot it
c = get_channel(ima, "current");
plot_data(c.data, color=:lapaz, title="current", legend=:none)
# Plot using the Images library
using Images
d = get_channel(ima, "current bwd", origin="upper").data
d = d .- minimum(d)
d = d ./ maximum(d)
Gray.(d)If you want to load GXSM images, use:
# load one channel
ima = load_image("dataset007-Xp-Topo.nc")
# load all channels into one object
fnames = filter(x -> occursin("dataset007-", x), readdir("nc", join=true))
ima = load_image(fnames)
# get the channel data
d1 = get_channel(ima, "Topo", origin="upper").data
d2 = get_channel(ima, "ADC2 bwd", origin="upper").dataCode examples can be found in the example notebook.
