TY - JOUR A1 - Nolze, Gert A1 - Winkelmann, Aimo T1 - Progress in dynamic EBSD pattern simulation N2 - EBSD is nowadays a common technique for the characterization of crystalline microstructures in scanning electron microscopy. The diffraction patterns are often interpreted by superimposing individual Kikuchi bands which are geometrically described by band edges derived from Braggs law. For the typically very simple crystal structures of technically applied materials, such a simplification of the Kikuchi pattern interpretation works sufficiently well, especially for orientation determinations as a main application of EBSD. The more complex crystal structures, however, are a challenge for EBSD indexing routines which in such cases often fail unpredictably. The use of only the intensities of single reflectors for a description of the Kikuchi band intensity and as a cut-off criterion for a pre-selection of the strongest bands are not satisfactory. Often the result will match too many phases, or there are certain deviations in the intensity prediction which must be adapted manually. This is already problematic if one is absolutely sure that the patterns are originating from the expected phase and it becomes a very questionable procedure for an unknown phase.

The orientation relationships of both phases are investigated using characteristically related sets of Kikuchi patterns, which were collected from topotactically intergrown hematite variants and their parent magnetite crystal grain. We address the hexagonal description of trigonal and cubic phases with respect to crystallographic relationships. The combination of locally resolved EBSD measurements and microstructural investigations thus offers a promising opportunity to evaluate orientation relationships and intergrowth between magnetite and hematite.
