Extract

An automated computer technique for the indexing of spot or transmission Kikuchi patterns from any crystal structure has been developed. The patterns are recorded from the fluorescence screen of a PHILIPS EM 430 TEM with an integrating, Peltier cooled CCD camera (PULNIX TM 86QN) through a window from outside by replacing the focusing binocular. The frame-grabber board PCLL2 (SPINDLER & HOYER) has a resolution of 8 bit which corresponds to 256 grey levels. To reduce the high range of image contrastj a circular continuous density filter is positioned directly in front of the camera lens.
