Live From the Lab: The Gritty Details of Texture Analysis

Texture analysis involves the measurement of the crystallographic distribution of crystallites within a material. Optimization of the texture of a material for a specific purpose can be accomplished by adjusting processing leading to performance enhancement.  

In this episode of Live From the Lab, we will build on our previous texture episode by digging deeper into texture analysis including 2D diffraction, iso- vs side-inclination measurements, and spherical harmonic vs. component analysis.
