TL;DR: In this article, the microstructures of MCrAl-Y coatings have been investigated using high-resolution analytical electron microscopy, and phase identification was accomplished by X-ray diffraction, energy-dispersive Xray spectroscopy, selected area diffraction and convergent beam diffraction of extractions and foils.

01 Jan 1984TL;DR: In this article, the application of high resolution electron microscopy (via STEM) to determine the microstructure of MCrAlY coatings is demonstrated, along with proper etchant selection and proper extraction and diffraction.
Abstract: The application of high resolution electron microscopy (via STEM) to determine the microstructure of MCrAlY coatings is demonstrated. The importance of optical and scanning electron microscopy and proper etchant selection is also presented along with x-ray diffraction of extractions as well as bulk samples. These techniques are described in detail.
