Supplementary Data: Mapping of local lattice parameter ratios by projective Kikuchi pattern matching

This is the experimental dataset which was analyzed in: "Mapping of local lattice parameter ratios by projective Kikuchi pattern matching" Aimo Winkelmann, Gert Nolze, Grzegorz Cios, and Tomasz Tokarski Phys. Rev. Materials 2 (2018) 123803 https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevMaterials.2.123803 We describe a lattice-based crystallographic approximation for the analysis of distorted crystal structures via electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) in the scanning electron microscope. EBSD patterns are closely linked to local lattice parameter ratios via Kikuchi bands that indicate geometrical lattice plane projections. Based on the transformation properties of points and lines in the real projective plane, we can obtain continuous estimations of the local lattice distortion based on projectively transformed Kikuchi diffraction simulations for a reference structure. By quantitative image matching to a projective transformation model of the lattice distortion in the full solid angle of possible scattering directions, we enforce a crystallographically consistent approximation in the fitting procedure of distorted simulations to the experimentally observed diffraction patterns. As an application example, we map the locally varying tetragonality in martensite grains of steel
