“…In addition to EBSD, the technique of electron channeling orientation determination (eCHORD) also requires an accurate knowledge of the incident beam geometry for precise orientation determination when large sample areas are scanned [22,23]. The assumption of an incorrect projection center can bias the local crystallographic parameters which are obtained by the analysis of EBSD patterns, and thus has a direct influence on the precision of orientation data from the sample, the lattice parameters, the sensitivity to pseudosymmetry issues, and the quality of phase discrimination, among other issues [20,21,[24][25][26][27][28]. In this way, the projection center is of key importance for the principle of the EBSD method, but its quantitative influence on errors of the final EBSD orientation data often is not completely transparent.…”
