A convolutional neural network for defect classification in Bragg coherent X-ray diffraction

Abstract Coherent diffraction imaging enables the imaging of individual defects, such as dislocations or stacking faults, in materials. These defects and their surrounding elastic strain fields have a critical influence on the macroscopic properties and functionality of materials. However, their ide...
