Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD)

Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD) Susan Swapp, University of Wyoming . What is EBSD? Accelerated electrons in the primary beam of a scanning electron microscope can be diffracted by atomic layers in crystalline materials.These diffracted electrons can be detected when they impinge on a phosphor screen and generate visible lines, called Kikuchi bands, or “EBSP’s” (electron backscatter …
