Figure 1
(insets) Plots of the normalized textured polycrystalline PDF, (NTP-PDF), from a nickel f.c.c. sample with a weak fiber texture along the [001] crystallographic direction. See text for details. In (a), (b) and (c) the inset shows a 3D rendering of the NTP-PDF at a fixed r value. The left column shows the stereographic projection of the inset. The right column shows a 1D plot of the value in each pixel along a great circle from the north pole to the south pole, as a function of polar angle, θ. (a) Case for r = 2.49 Å which captures the nearest-neighbor peak for the isotropic sample. (b) Same value of r, but for the sample with the weak fiber texture given by equation (34 ) with c = 0.5. (c) Same texture as (b) but for the annulus at r = 3.52 Å corresponding to the second-neighbor peak in the PDF. The color scale is the value of the PDF in each pixel. |
