ORIENTATION CORRELATION IN 72.5-PERCENT STRAINED OFE COPPER

Misorientation Correlation Functions, MCFs, for a 72.5 percent cold-ro lled OFE copper plate were calculated for groups of local lattice orie ntation measurements taken from the tolling-normal and rolling-transve rse planes of the sample. The MCFs' dependence upon sample direction, orientation pair selection and the spatial separation of orientation m easurements was explored. A preferred misorientation region in Euler s pace was identified and found to contain misorientations corresponding to coincides of SIGMA3, SIGMA33c, SIGMA37c and SIGMA43c. MCFs associa ted with orientations of interest were found to exhibit unique charact eristics.
