Unlocking the power of spherical indexing with EDAX OIM Matrix

Spherical indexing is a whole pattern matching method that’s revolutionizing EBSD analysis. This method significantly enhances indexing success rates, angular accuracy, and phase discrimination over traditional Hough-based indexing. Unlike dictionary indexing, spherical indexing offers the same benefits but operates much faster. Integrated into the EDAX OIM Analysis™ 9 software, this method, combined with pattern filtering and subsequent orientation mapping, creates a seamless ecosystem for users. In this webinar, we will explore applications of spherical indexing within the OIM Matrix™ extension. We’ll demonstrate its effectiveness through several practical examples, including orientation analysis at dissimilar weld interfaces, analysis of nanometer sized precipitates, sub-grain analysis of 3D printed Ni-based superalloys, and dislocation analysis of polycrystalline diamond composites. Join us to see how spherical indexing can transform your materials characterization.
