St14 Steel

In this paper, the ‘orange peel’ defect in the surface range of the st14 steel sheet has been investigated using the electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) technique. It has been found that the ‘orange peel’ defect in the st14 steel sheet was resulted from the local coarse grains which were produced during hot-rolling due to the critical deformation in dual-phase zone; During deep drawing, the coarse grains with {100}<001> microtexture can slip on the {112}<111> slip system to form bulging and yields orange peel defects, while the coarse grains with {112}<110> orientation do not form the defect as the Schmid factor of {112}<111> slip system in it equals zero.

Deformation microstructures and micro-orientations of columnar grains with different orientations in a polycrystalline high purity Al cold-rolled up to 65% (thickness reduction) were investigated using electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) technique. It was found that rotations were Inhomogeneous within the individual grains, the rotation angles of the parts close to the initial boundaries (BPs) were smaller than those remote from the boundaries (IPs), e.g. the deviation angles between the BPs and the IPs were 5-6° in the grains with <001>//RD orientation, leading to the rotation along the α-fiber, while the deviation angles were 5-12° in the grains with <121>//ND orientation rotating toward the β-fiber. These results demonstrated that the microstructures and local rotations of various parts within the rolled individual columnar grains were influenced by their initial orientations and boundaries.

The effect of grain-interior α precipitation on the β texture evolution of the near-β Ti-6246 alloy during through-transus forging was investigated in two-step sequential forgings. The microstructure and texture were analyzed using scanning electron microscopy, electron-backscatter diffraction, and X-ray diffraction. The previous β forging was performed at 1253 K at 0.01/s, while the subsequent forging in the (α + β) region was conducted at 1073 K at 0.01/s. The forging in the β region facilitated the penetration of the interior α phase into β grains and reduced the formation of grain boundary α. The {001} texture intensity increased during the forging in the single β region. By contrast, the increase in the {001} texture intensity was moderate at a lower temperature (1073 K) because the Schmid factor (SF) value of the {110}<111> slip system drastically decreased, but those of the {112}<111> and {123}<111> slip systems increased before α precipitation. During α precipitation for all β forging ratios, the {110}<111> slip system was activated, resulting in a lowering of the {001} texture intensity. The lower the forging temperature before interior α precipitation under a constant total forging ratio, the more the {001} texture intensity was suppressed in the final β texture, accompanied by interior α precipitation.

Deformation Area

In order to determine the evolution features of deformation twins for TA2 commercial pure titanium (cp-TA2), the TA2 samples were bent under different bending angles in three-point bending tests via a universal testing machine. The electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) technique was applied to identify the grain boundaries (GBs) and twin boundaries (TBs) in the bending areas. The results reveal that the type of deformation area would effect the evolution of different deformation twins. It is inferred that the state of stress would promote the multiplication of the same type of deformation twins.

Additively manufactured tungsten and its alloys have been widely used for plasma facing components (PFCs) in future nuclear fusion reactors. Under the fusion process, PFCs experience a high-temperature exposure, which will ultimately affect the microstructural features, keeping in mind the importance of microstructures. In this study, microhardness and electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) techniques were used to study the specimens. Vickers hardness method was used to study tungsten under different parameters. EBSD technique was used to study the microstructure and Kikuchi pattern of samples under different orientations. We mainly focused on selective laser melting (SLM) parameters and the effects of these parameters on the results of different techniques used to study the behavior of samples.

Zinc Oxide is a wide band-gap compound semiconductor that has been used in optoelectronic and photovoltaic applications due to its good electrical and optical properties. Aluminium has been an efficient n-type dopant for ZnO to produce low resistivity films and high transparency to visible light. In addition, the improvement of these properties also depends on the morphology, crystalline structure and deposition parameters. In this work, ZnO:Al films were produced by d.c. pulsed magnetron sputtering deposition from a ZnO ceramic target (2.0 wt% Al2O3) on glass substrates, at a temperature of 250 ºC.The crystallographic orientation of aluminum doped zinc oxide (ZnO:Al) thin films has been studied by Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD) technique. EBSD coupled with Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) is a powerful tool for the microstructural and crystallographic characterization of a wide range of materials.The investigation by EBSD technique of such films presents some challenges since this analysis requires a flat and smooth surface. This is a necessary condition to avoid any shadow effects during the experiments performed with high tilting conditions (70º). This is also essential to ensure a good control of the three dimensional projection of the crystalline axes on the geometrical references related to the sample.Crystalline texture is described by the inverse pole figure (IPF) maps (Figure 1). Through EBSD analysis it was observed that the external surface of the film presents a strong texture on the basal plane orientation (grains highlighted in red colour). Furthermore it was possible to verify that the grain size strongly depends on the deposition time (Figure 1 (a) and (b)). The electrical and optical film properties improve with increasing of the grain size, which can be mainly, attributed to the decrease in scattering grain boundaries which leads to an increasing in carrier mobility (Figure 2).The authors kindly acknowledge the financial support from the Portuguese Foundation for Science and Technology (FCT) scientific program for the National Network of Electron Microscopy (RNME) EDE/1511/RME/2005.

Orientation Determination

Snowflake-shaped dendrites of β-eucryptite–β-quartz solid solution were artificially crystallized in a matt glaze, and the crystallographic orientation of the dendrites was analysed by the electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) technique. The six branches of a snowflake-shaped dendrite in the plane (0001) are along 〈110〉. From the orientation determination, a twin relationship and a topotactic relationship between dendrites were found. The twin axes are [011], [0{\overline 1}1] and [210], and the twin planes perpendicular to the twin axes are ({\overline 1}2{\overline 1}2) and (1{\overline 2}12). From the reticular theory of twinning, it was calculated that the twin indexn= 2 and the obliquity ω = 3.2877°. The studied dendrite is a twin by reticular pseudomerohedry with low twin index and obliquity. In the topotactic growth, no twin elements have been found, but the three main crystallographic directions 〈001〉, 〈210〉 and 〈110〉 of the two dendritic crystals overlap each other. The degree of lattice coincidence between the two crystals in this topotactic growth is also discussed.

Hybrid superplastic forming (SPF) is a novel sheet metal forming technique that combines hot drawing with gas forming process. Compared with the conventional SPF process, the thickness distribution of AZ31B part formed by this hybrid SPF method has been significantly improved. Additionally, the microstructure evolution of AZ31 was examined by electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD). Many subgrains with low misorientation angle were observed in the coarse grains during SPF. Based on the tensile test results, parameters of hyperbolic sine creep law model was determined at 400 oC. The hybrid SPF behavior of non-superplastic grade AZ31B was predicted by ABAQUS using this material forming model. The FEM results of thickness distribution, thinning characteristics and forming height were compared with the experimental results and have shown reasonable agreement with each other.

Gh4169 Alloy

In order to study the mechanism of the fatigue strengthening using laser shot peening in GH4169 alloy, micro-structural and nanoscale mechanical twins (MT) at different depth below the top surface subjected to laser shot peening processing (LSP) were investigated by means of electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) observations. In terms of the experimental observations and analyses, the formation of refined grains and nanoscale MT mechanism at the near surface of GH4169 alloy as a function of LSP treament can be summarized as follows: (i) two direction low density of MTs divide the initial coarse grains into submicron rhombic blocks; (ii) high density of MTs aligned in two directions subdivide the submicron rhombic blocks into nanoscale rhombic MT blocks; (iii) the third direction MT further refine the nanoscale rhombic MT blocks into nanoscale triangular MT blocks; (iv) some of subdivided blocks evolve into refined grains. An ultra-high strain rate induced by ultra-short laser pulse plays a key role in the formation of refined grains and nanoscale MT during plastic deformation of GH4169 alloy subjected to LSP treatment.

The present work was undertaken to shed additional light on the globular-α microstructure produced during FSP of Ti-6Al-4V. To this end, the electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) technique was employed to characterize the crystallographic aspects of such microstructure. In contrast to the previous reports in the literature, neither the texture nor the misorientation distribution in the α phase were random. Although the texture was weak, it showed a clear prevalence of the P1 and C-fiber simple-shear orientations, thus providing evidence for an increased activity of the prism-<a> and pyramidal <c+a> slip systems. In addition, the misorientation distribution exhibited a crystallographic preference of 60° and 90° boundaries. This observation was attributed to a partial α→β→α phase transformation during/following high-temperature deformation and the possible activation of mechanical twinning.
