This meeting provides a forum for EBSD users (old and new) to discuss the most recent ideas and innovations in EBSD and related techniques. Previous meetings have generated strong interactions between users from different backgrounds (physics, earth sciences and material sciences). The participants will also have an opportunity to meet representatives from some of the leading equipment and software manufacturers in the field of EBSD and to obtain information on their products.

EBSD is a powerful scanning electron microscope based diffraction technique that provides quantitative crystallographic analysis from regions as small as a few tens of nanometers at the surface of bulk samples. The technique has become highly automated and data acquisition rates are becoming increasingly rapid, so that highly detailed maps showing a wealth of crystallographic information over large areas of a sample can be readily generated. EBSD is firmly established as an indispensable tool for the quantitative characterisation of crystalline samples and is used extensively in many materials research institutions.

EBSD is being brought to bear on an ever expanding range of applications in metals, ceramics and semiconductors, including both man-made and natural materials. Current trends include: combining EBSD and EDX analysis for analysis of multi-phase materials, combining EBSD and FIB for 3D characterisation, in-situ experiments using EBSD to track dynamic structural changes, methods and equipment to deliver higher spatial & angular resolution including strain determination and faster data acquisition rates. Related techniques such as orientation measurement and mapping in the TEM or with x-ray diffraction will also discussed at the meeting.

Event Accommodation

Accommodation will be available at Hertford College, where the conference dinner will be held on the evening of the 3rd April.
