Thermo Scientific QuasOr EBSD, a fully integrated extension of the Thermo Scientific NORAN System 7 architecture. QuasOr EBSD includes a full suite of acquisition and analysis capabilities.
QuasOr EBSD CameraThe QuasOr EBSD camera is capable of collecting and indexing at rates in excess of 600 patterns per second. Included is an integrated motorized slide and a tapered tube design with a 42 mm diameter which allows simultaneous EBSD, EDS and WDS acquisitions on many models of electron microscope.
Orientation Mapping
QuasOr provides a wide choice of mapping display options. Euler, HKL and UVW maps are available, as well as phase and grain boundary maps. Additionally, image and pattern quality maps give the user confidence in the data.
Texture Analysis
QuasOr displays crystalline texture information as pole figures, inverse pole figures or as an Orientation Distribution Function. Both pole figures and inverse pole figures can be displayed as the data is collected allowing the user to make a rapid interpretation of sample texture.
Simultaneous Spectral Imaging
NORAN System 7 can collect a full EDS spectrum and WDS X-ray counts at each point of a crystal orientation map without compromising acquisition speed. The set-up, acquisition and analysis of EBSD, EDS and WDS data are managed through a single interface, negating the need to switch between programs. This enables the analyst to collect a wealth of elemental and structural data in minimal acquisition times.
