Electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) is based on the measurement of the diffraction pattern formed by the electrons backscattered toward a phosphor screen positioned at an angle from the sample surface. The visible lines generated by the impinging electrons are called Kikuchi bands; thus the technique is also known as backscatter Kikuchi diffraction (BKD).  ]]></dc:description></metadata>
