Ceramic Capacitor Grain Size Analysis Using Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD)
The overall scope of this NESC study was to identify (or develop) a tool, methodology, or process that can inspect a ceramic capacitor and consistently return repeatable grain size distribution results. It is important to note that the development of a machine learning technique was considered as an option for this study, but only if an existing automated tool was not available. This report explains why the Electron Backscatter Diffraction analysis method for grain structure and size distribution was deemed a suitable candidate for this work.
