In-Situ EBSD Observations of Bending for Single-Crystalline Pure Copper

To understand the material characteristics of singleand
poly-crystals of pure copper, the respective relationships between
crystallographic orientations and microstructures, and the bending
and mechanical properties were examined. And texture distribution
is also analyzed. A bending test is performed in a SEM apparatus and
while its behaviors are observed in situ. Furthermore, some
analytical results related to crystal direction maps, inverse pole
figures, and textures were obtained from EBSD analyses.
