The influence of errors of x-ray texture measurements on ODF calculation with central normal distribution approximation

摘要

Experimental pole figures are measured by x-ray method for materials with hexagonal symmetry (Ti and Mg alloys). The Orientation Distribution Function is calculated by approximation method with central normal distribution. Texture inhomogeneities and effects of defocusing are the main sources of pole density errors. The measurement errors depend on crystal direction {hkl} and are different for maximum and minimum regions on pole figure. The influence of texture measurement errors on accuracy of the ODF calculation is investigated.
