3-Dimensional Characterization of Polycrystalline Bulk Materials Using High-Energy Synchrotron Radiation
نویسندگان
چکیده
The implementation of 3-Dimensional X-Ray Diffraction (3DXRD) Microscopy at the Advanced Photon Source is described. The technique enables the non-destructive structural characterization of polycrystalline bulk materials and is therefore suitable for in situ studies during thermo-mechanical processing. High energy synchrotron radiation and area detectors are employed. First, a forward modeling approach for the reconstruction of grain boundaries from high resolution diffraction images is described. Second, a high resolution reciprocal space mapping technique of individual grains is presented.

Polycrystalline diamond synthesized using the chemical vapour deposition (CVD) technique can be used to fabricate new types of photodetectors for the characterization of X-ray light in synchrotron beamlines. Since diamond exhibits a low absorption to low-energy photons, such devices allow beam-position monitoring with very little beam attenuation at photon energies as low as 2 keV up to 15-20 k...
