Texture and anisotropy of polycrystalline materials - Diffraction of X-rays, synchrotron radiation and neutrons

Agrégat polycristallin; polycrystalline aggregate

Polycrystalline solid made up of individual single-crystal crystallites, separated from each other by grain boundaries.

Caractère Σ du joint de grains; Σ character of grain boundaries

Unit mesh volume of the coincidence lattice in units of elementary crystal mesh volume.

Dislocations géométriquement nécessaires; Geometrically necessary dislocations GND

Unlike statistical dislocations, which are randomly distributed, geometrically necessary GND dislocations are constructively arranged to achieve local plastic deformation of the crystal.
