Automated Burgers Vector Identification for Individual Dislocations in Bulk Crystals

Weak-beam imaging in dark-field X-ray microscopy (DFXM) can resolve individual dislocations in bulk crystals, but assigning Burgers vectors from the resulting contrast typically requires manual comparison with forward simulations.
