Contents of the workshop
EBSD is generally perceived as coloured representation of the microstructure of metals and materials in term of grain orientations. Such coloured maps can be seen simply as qualitative images but in fact contain much quantitative information.
This lecture will explain relevant methods and demystify the numerous acronyms we encounter. Starting from the foundation of this technique, examples and theory will be presented that suggest the application of EBSD to crystalline materials, not only metals.
