We report 3D coherent diffractive imaging of Au/Pd core-shell nanoparticleswith 6 nm resolution on 5-6 femtosecond timescales. We measured single-shotdiffraction patterns of core-shell nanoparticles using very intense and shortx-ray free electron laser pulses. By taking advantage of the curvature of theEwald sphere and the symmetry of the nanoparticle, we reconstructed the 3Delectron density of 34 core-shell structures from single-shot diffractionpatterns. We determined the size of the Au core and the thickness of the Pdshell to be 65.0 +/- 1.0 nm and 4.0 +/- 0.5 nm, respectively, and identifiedthe 3D elemental distribution inside the nanoparticles with an accuracy betterthan 2%. We anticipate this method can be used for quantitative 3D imaging ofsymmetrical nanostructures and virus particles.
