1. Methods for investigating local textures
1.1 Optical measurements – Universal stage microscope
Stereology , based on optical microscopy , but traditionally disregarding crystal structure, was one of the first attempts to broaden the approach to knowledge of microstructure . The advantages of optical microscopy include:
wide availability;
observation of microstructure at low magnification;
measurement of the shape, size and network of grain boundaries;
and phase discrimination.
Disadvantages include:
...
