1、Designation: E81 96 (Reapproved 2011)Standard Test Method forPreparing Quantitative Pole Figures1This standard is issued under the fixed designation E81; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year of originaladoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision.Anu

2、mber in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscriptepsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the use of the X-ray diffracto-meter to prepare quantitative pole figures.1.2 The test method consists of several e

3、xperimental proce-dures. Some of the procedures (1-5)2permit preparation of acomplete pole figure. Others must be used in combination toproduce a complete pole figure.1.3 Pole figures (6) and inverse pole figures (7-10) are twodimensional averages of the three-dimensional crystallite ori-entation di

4、stribution. Pole figures may be used to constructeither inverse pole figures (11-13) or the crystallite orientationdistribution (14-21). Development of series expansions of thecrystallite orientation distribution from reflection pole figures(22, 23) makes it possible to obtain a series expansion of

5、acomplete pole figure from several incomplete pole figures. Polefigures or inverse pole figures derived by such methods shall betermed calculated. These techniques will not be describedherein.1.4 Provided the orientation is homogeneous through thethickness of the sheet, certain procedures (1-3) may

6、be used toobtain a complete pole figure.1.5 Provided the orientation has mirror symmetry withrespect to planes perpendicular to the rolling, transverse, andnormal directions, certain procedures (4, 5, 24) may be used toobtain a complete pole figure.1.6 The test method emphasizes the Schulz reflectio

7、n tech-nique (25). Other techniques (3, 4, 5, 24) may be consideredvariants of the Schulz technique and are cited as options, butnot described herein.1.7 The test method also includes a description of thetransmission technique of Decker, et al (26), which may beused in conjunction with the Schulz re

8、flection technique toobtain a complete pole figure.1.8 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of

9、regulatory limitations prior to use.2. Summary of Test Method2.1 The test method consists of characterizing the distribu-tion of orientations of selected lattice planes with respect tosample-fixed coordinates (6). The distribution will usually beobtained by measurement of the intensity of X rays dif

10、fractedby the sample. In such measurements the detector and associ-ated limiting slits are fixed at twice the appropriate Braggangle, and the diffracted intensity is recorded as the orientationof the sample is changed (1-6, 25, 26, 27). After the measureddata have been corrected, as necessary, for b

11、ackground, defo-cusing, and absorption, and normalized to have an averagevalue of unity, the results may be plotted in stereographic orequal-area projection.2.2 The geometry of the Schulz (25) reflection method isillustrated in Fig. 1. Goniometers employing this geometry arecommercially available. T

12、he source of X rays is indicated by L.Slit S1 limits divergence of the incident beam in the plane ofprojection. Slit S2 limits divergence perpendicular to the planeof projection. The sample, indicated by crosshatching, may betilted about the axis FF8, which is perpendicular to thediffractometer axis

13、 and lies in the plane of the sample. The tiltangle was denoted f by Schulz (25). The sample positionshown in Fig. 1 corresponds to f = 0 deg, for which approxi-mate parafocusing conditions exist at the detector slit, S3. Withthe application of a defocusing correction, this method is usefulover a ra

14、nge of colatitude f from 0 deg to approximately 75deg.2.2.1 Tilting the sample about FF8, so as to reduce thedistance between L and points in the sample surface above theplane of projection, causes X rays diffracted from these pointsto be displaced to the left of the center of S3, while X raysdiffra

15、cted from points in the sample surface below the plane ofprojection are displaced to the right of the center of S3. Thedisplacement is equal to 2D tan f cos u, where D is thedistance above or below the plane of projection. The inte-grated, or total, diffracted intensity is influenced only slightly1T

Insofar as pos

18、sible, the detector slitshall be of sufficient width to include the defocused line profilecorresponding to the maximum sample tilt for which measure-ments are to be made. Because of interferences from neigh-boring diffraction peaks and physical limitations on samplesize and detector slit width, it i

19、s necessary to limit verticaldivergence of the incident beam. A widely used pole figuregoniometer with a focal spot to the center of the sampledistance of 172 mm employs a 0.5-mm slit located 30 mm fromthe center of the sample for this purpose. Measured intensitiesmay be corrected for defocusing by

20、comparison with intensitiesdiffracted by a randomly oriented specimen of similar material,or byemploying the theoretically calculated corrections (28).2.3 The geometry of the transmission technique of Decker,et al (26) is shown in Fig. 2. In contrast to the reflectionmethod, X rays diffracted from d

23、 figures are two-dimensional graphic representa-tions, on polar coordinate paper, of the average distribution ofcrystallite orientations in three dimensions. Data for construct-ing pole figures are obtained with X-ray diffractometers, usingreflection and transmission techniques.3.2 Several alternati

24、ve procedures may be used. Someproduce complete pole figures. Others yield partial pole fig-ures, which may be combined to produce a complete figure.4. Apparatus4.1 Source of X RaysA beam of characteristic X rays ofsubstantially constant intensity is required. Characteristic Ka-lpha radiation of chr

25、omium, iron, cobalt, nickel, copper,molybdenum, and silver have all been used successfully,depending on the chemical composition of the specimen.Insofar as possible, the radiation selected shall provide suffi-cient angular dispersion to permit the resolution of peaks to bemeasured, and shall not pro

26、duce excessive fluorescence in thesample. Linear absorption coefficients (29) for selected ele-ments are given in Table 2. Lower energy radiation (Cr, Fe, Co,Ni, Cu) is generally preferred for reflection pole figure mea-surements as it provides greater angular dispersion. Higherenergy radiation (Mo,

27、 Ag) is generally preferred for transmis-sion measurements.4.2 SlitsSuitable slits shall be provided to limit horizon-tal (in the plane of projection of Figs. 1 and 2) and vertical(perpendicular to the plane of projection of Figs. 1 and 2)divergence of the incident beam. Horizontal divergences of 1

28、to3 deg for reflection and 0.5 deg for transmission are typical.Vertical divergences of 0.2 deg for reflection and 1 deg fortransmission are typical. Insofar as possible, the receiving slitshall be of sufficient width to include the diffracted peak.Receiving slits corresponding to 1 deg 2theta are t

It is desirable that the specimenholder be equipped with a means for oscillating the sample inthe plane of

30、its surface without changing the orientation of thesample. It is also desirable that the magnitude of the oscillationbe variable. The specimen holder shall preferably be providedwith automatic means for changing colatitude and longitude ofthe sample.4.3.2 Alternative reflection geometries include th

31、ose ofBakarian (1), Field and Marchant (27), and Jetter and Borie (2).The method of Bakarian requires machining a number ofcylindrical specimens whose axes are perpendicular to thesheet normal direction. Each specimen provides intensity dataalong one parallel of longitude. The method of Jetter and B

32、orieentails the preparation of a spherical specimen. In the methodsof Bakarian and of Jetter and Borie, the sample shall, insofar aspossible, be prepared from homogeneous material. Thesemethods have the advantage that intensity data need not becorrected for absorption or defocusing. They do not perm

If this method is used in conjunctionwith the transmission method of Decker, et al (26),itisnecessary to use either differen

34、t orders of reflection or differentradiations in order to obtain a complete pole figure.FIG. 1 Geometry of Reflection Method.FIG. 2 Geometry of Transmission Method.E81 96 (2011)24.4 Specimen HolderTransmission MethodIf the trans-mission method is used, the specimen holder shall employ thegeometry of

35、 Decker, et al (26), shown in Fig. 2 and describedin 2.3. It is desirable that the specimen holder be equipped witha means for oscillating the sample in the plane of its surfacewithout changing the orientation of the sample. The specimenholder shall preferably be providedwith automatic means forchan

36、ging colatitude and longitude of the sample.4.5 DetectorThe detector shall preferably be of anenergy-dispersive type, for example, a solid state, proportional,or scintillation counter, and used in conjunction with a pulseheight selector circuit to discriminate against X rays whoseenergies differ mar

37、kedly from that of the characteristic K-alpharadiation being used. Reduction of the characteristic K-betaradiation requires the use of a monochromator or appropriatebeta filter. Pd, Zr, Ni, Co, Fe, Mn, and V are appropriate betafilters for Ag, Mo, Cu, Ni, Co, Fe, and Cr, respectively.5. Test Specime

38、ns5.1 For the reflection method, the sample shall be ofsufficient thickness that loss of intensity due to transmissionthrough the sample may be ignored. If a maximum loss of 1 %the incident beam is acceptable, the specimen must have alinear absorption thickness product equal to or greater than 2.3si

39、n u. For an iron sample with molybdenum K-alpha radiation,this requires that t be greater than 0.4, 0.6, and 0.7 for the(110), (200), and (211) reflections, respectively.5.1.1 Surface preparation is particularly important in thereflection method. Calculations due to Borie (30), who as-sumed a sawtoo

40、th surface of spacing a on a material with linearabsorption coefficient , indicate that the product a should beless than 0.5 if significant intensity losses are to be avoided.For an iron sample with cobalt K-alpha radiation, = 416cm1, corresponding to a # 12 m.5.2 For the transmission method, maximu

41、m intensity isobtained for a linear absorption thickness product equal to cosu. For an iron sample with molybdenum K-alpha, this corre-sponds to t equal to 0.98, 0.97, and 0.95 for the (110), (200),and (211) reflections, respectively. Thus, a suitable transmis-sion sample can also be used for reflec

42、tion measurements.5.3 Ordinarily test specimens are obtained from thickersections by reducing them mechanically so far as possible andthen etching to final thickness. The sample must not beoverheated or plastically deformed during the thinning process.The etchant used must remove material uniformly
