{wiki=Selected_area_diffraction}
Selected Area Diffraction (SAD) is a technique used in transmission electron microscopy (TEM) to analyze the crystallographic structure of materials. It allows researchers to obtain diffraction patterns from a specific area of a sample rather than from the entire specimen. This technique is particularly useful for studying the local structural properties of crystalline materials, including defects, phase composition, and orientation.
