This window displays one or several tables of zone axes geometry in order to index SAED patterns. The geometry of the SAED pattern is provided by the ratio of the 2 shortest origin to spot distances (reflections) and their angle (Fig. 1).

The geometry of the SAED pattern is provided by the ratio of the 2 shortest origin to spot distances (reflections) and their angle (Fig. 1).
Indexing can be proposed in several tables (ratio 1, angle 60 deg.). Mouse click on the red lines of the tables to display SAED patterns of the possible indexing solutions (ZnTe, Figures 5a, 5b), (AlGaAs, Figures 6a, 6b), (CaMgSiO4, Figures 7a, 7b).

The popup menu (mouse double click) attached to the SAED drawing allows to add Kikuchi or HOlZ lines as well as (hkl) indices (Fig. 8a). The SAED drawing parameters (camera length, deviation, etc) can also be adjusted.
