Claims

C1strongest claim

it is demonstrated that with a single DED assisted by an orientable support, it is possible to perform multiple advanced microstructural characterizations of both bulk samples and thin foils in the same SEM.

C2weakest assumption

The assumption that precise translation and rotation movements combined with energy filtering and custom post-processing will consistently produce high-quality, easily indexable Kikuchi patterns and usable micrographs across all listed geometries without significant artifacts or loss of resolution.

C3one line summary

A single orientable Timepix3 detector enables EBSD, RKD, TKD in multiple geometries plus BSE/ECCI/STEM-in-SEM imaging in one SEM for bulk and thin-foil samples.
