EBSD and Subtle Crystallographic Differences - A Study of Resolving Interlayer Spacings in Nb-Ni and Nb-Co mu-phases
Lukas Berners, Nisa Ulumuddin, Annika Baum +9
In ordered intermetallics, slight variations in lattice site occupancy and specific interlayer spacings have been identified as the sources of significant changes in critical resol…
Characterizing Dislocation Substructures in Creep-Deformed Olivine Using Electron Channeling Contrast Imaging
M. Haroon Qaiser, Jessica White, David Wallis +1
Olivine is the dominant mineral in Earth's upper mantle and therefore controls mantle rheology and the mechanics of plate tectonics. The constitutive laws for dislocation-mediated…
Dynamical Simulation of On-axis Transmission Kikuchi and Spot Diffraction Patterns, Based on Accurate Diffraction Geometry Calibration
Tianbi Zhang, Raynald Gauvin, Aimo Winkelmann +1
Transmission Kikuchi diffraction in the scanning electron microscope has gained popularity as a materials characterization technique for its high throughput and nanometer-level spa…
Polar Topologies in a Ferroelastic Metal Membrane
Rahil Haria, Noah Schnitzer, T. Ben Britton +10
Polar metals, materials in which electric polarisation and metallicity coexist, are exceptionally rare because itinerant electrons screen long-range dipoles and favour centrosymmet…
Characterization of WSe films using reflection Kikuchi diffraction in the scanning electron microscope and multivariate statistical analyses
Tianbi Zhang, Jakub Holzer, Tomáš VystavÄl +4
The study of thin films and 2D materials, including transition metal dichalcogenides such as WSe offers opportunities to leverage their properties in advanced sensors, quantum…
AstroECP: towards more practical Electron Channeling Contrast Imaging
M. Haroon Qaiser, Lukas Berners, Robin J. Scales +5
Electron channeling contrast imaging (ECCI) is a scanning electron microscopy (SEM) based technique that enables bulk-sample characterization of crystallographic defects (e.g. disl…
