Abstract: We explored the possibility of a Scanning Electron Microscopy technique for the determination of crystallographic orientation, based on the measurement of the reflectivity of very low energy electrons. Our experiments are based on the concept that in the incident electron energy range 0–30 eV, electron reflectivity can be correlated with the electronic structure of the material, which varies with the local crystallographic orientation of the specimen.\nThe motivation for the development of this technique was to achieve a quick and highresolution means for determining the crystallographic orientation of very small grains in a polycrystalline material. The key limiting factor was the cleanliness of the sample surface and also the geometrical setup of the experiment.
Keywords: crystallographic orientation; electron microscopy; SEM
