Abstract

An X-ray energy-dispersive diffraction technique to study the texture of materials using synchrotron radiation has been developed. The design and commissioning of the diffraction instrument are described. The technique was first applied to study a drawn-wire aluminium sample which has a well known deformation texture. To demonstrate its capability further, results obtained from an erbium evaporated thin film are also presented.
