Growth Directions of Precipitates in the Al–Si–Mg–Hf Alloy Using Combined EBSD and FIB 3D-Reconstruction Techniques. (8th May 2015) - Wang, Xueli
Abstract: Nanobelt-like precipitates in an Al–Si–Mg–Hf alloy were studied using electron backscattered diffraction (EBSD) and focused ion beam (FIB) scanning electron microscopy techniques. One grain of the Al matrix with a near [111] normal direction was identified by EBSD and the three-dimensional (3D) microstructure of nanobelt-like precipitates in this grain was studied using 3D-FIB. Ten growth directions of the nanobelt-like precipitates in the grain were identified.
