Improved high-resolution EBSD analyses by correcting radial distortion of electron diffraction patterns

Correcting Radial Distortion by Circle Fitting

A powerful and popular approach for estimating radial lens distortion parameters is to use the fact that lines which are straight in the scene should be imaged as straight lines under the pinhole camera model. This paper revisits this problem using the division model to parameterise the lens distortion. This turns out to have significant advantages over the more conventional parameterisation, e...

Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD) Technique and Materials Characterization Examples

The term “electron backscatter diffraction” (EBSD) is now synonymous with both the scanning electron microscope (SEM) technique and the accessory system that can be attached to an SEM. EBSD provides quantitative microstructural information about the crystallographic nature of metals, minerals, semiconductors, and ceramics—in fact most inorganic crystalline materials. It reveals grain size, grai...

The collection of high-resolution electron diffraction data.

A number of atomic-resolution structures of membrane proteins (better than 3Å resolution) have been determined recently by electron crystallography. While this technique was established more than 40 years ago, it is still in its infancy with regard to the two-dimensional (2D) crystallization, data collection, data analysis, and protein structure determination. In terms of data collection, elect...
