EBSDtälike
EBSDtälike is a term used to describe a class of techniques that are EBSD-like but incorporate a tilt-sensitive data acquisition strategy to enhance crystallographic orientation mapping in polycrystalline materials. The concept builds on electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD), which uses Kikuchi patterns generated by backscattered electrons to determine local crystal orientation. In EBSDtälike approaches, the instrument collects diffraction data at multiple controlled tilt angles of the sample, or uses a detector geometry designed to emulate a tilt series, allowing improved sampling of orientation information, better discrimination of overlapping patterns, and enhanced detection of minority phases or very small grains.
Methodologically, EBSDtälike data are processed with standard EBSD indexing methods, with the tilt-angle information fused using
Applications of EBSDtälike are primarily in materials science and metallurgy research, where improved resolution of grain
