Indexing a Kikuchi Pattern

Home The angles between the center lines of bands correspond to interplaner angles of the crystal lattice,
History and the band widths correspond to the reciprocal interplanar distances (pattern on the left). So after
Basics at least three bands have been located, a best fit of the lattice planes is searched for by checking
TKD and EBSD through the Miller indices which are allowed by the structure factor of the crystal lattice under
Pattern Solving consideration. A simulation of the pattern finally verifies that the grain orientation and the selected
FastEBSD crystal structure are the best matches to the pattern. This check can also be visualized by displaying
Imaging the overlay of the theoretical pattern on the experimental one (pattern on the right).
