The Grain Boundary Data Archive: TiO2 (rutile) and Nb-doped TiO2
Metadata
EBSD data
Grain Boundary line segment data
Grain Boundary Character and Energy Distributions
Grain Boundary Distribution plots and Images
MetadataThese data were collected by Ying Pang as part of her doctoral dissertation (2005) at Carnegie Mellon University. Two samples are compared: 99.99 % rutile and 2 m/o Nb-doped rutile. Orientation maps were collected by EBSD. Details of the sample preparation and analysis can be found in the two papers cited below.
