Date: Friday 7 April 2023
Time: 3am NZST, 1am AEST, 11pm AWST (Thurs 6 April)
This webinar, in conjunction with the Center for Electron Microscopy and Analysis (CEMAS) at The Ohio State University, will focus on examples of how advances in energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) and electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) can help improve your analysis. The webinar will be broken down into two talks, as outlined below (see the full abstracts on the registration page).
High-precision EBSD from spherical harmonic indexing
Presenter: Gregory Sparks, Post Doctoral Scholar, The Ohio State University
In this talk, we discuss work on implementing high-precision EBSD using the recently developed technique of spherical harmonic indexing.
Few compelling examples of the impact of EDS on alloy design
Presenter: G. Babu Viswanathan, Research Professor, The Ohio State University
This talk will run through a few examples where EDS has made a remarkable difference in the design of high-temperature aerospace materials through a) accurate microstructural description, b) identifying and isolating the root cause of chemically induced microstructure destabilisation events that cause failures, and c) atomic scale segregation events that can either weaken or strengthen the alloy.
