Advanced electron microscopy: progress and application of electron backscatter diffraction

Orientation microscopy based on electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) is a powerful technique for the rapid and comprehensive characterization of crystalline materials. It covers a broad range of scale ranging from the micrometer to the centimeter. At the centimeter scale, EBSD is capable of statistical texture determination similar to X-ray techniques. At the micrometer scale EBSD can achieve a resolution close to that of conventional transmission electron microscope. This article provides an overview of the principles behind EBSD and its use as a technique to characterise deformed metals and complex microstructures.

Abstract

Orientation microscopy based on electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) is a powerful technique for the rapid and comprehensive characterization of crystalline materials. It covers a broad range of scale ranging from the micrometer to the centimeter. At the centimeter scale, EBSD is capable of statistical texture determination similar to X-ray techniques. At the micrometer scale EBSD can achieve a resolution close to that of conventional transmission electron microscope. This article provides an overview of the principles behind EBSD and its use as a technique to characterise deformed metals and complex microstructures.
