Understanding the behaviour of materials on the small scale is key to understanding and improving materials. In Oxford we have been developing a technique based upon crystal diffraction in the humble scanning electron microscope which can be used to extract elastic strain and lattice rotations with high precision (1E-4 in strain and 1E-4 rads in rotation). In this talk, I will present an overview of the technique and its use in aiding our understanding of the micromechanical behaviour of near crystalline materials.
