Experimental setup, 2D SAXS/WAXS patterns, and 1D profiles for data interpretation. (a) Experimental setup incorporating the thermo-mechanical loading rig, imaging detector (“X-ray eye”), WAXS and SAXS detectors. (b) 2D WAXS patterns at initial state, maximum load at each cycle and final state. Examples of isolated bright diffraction spots are highlighted in red dash circles; (c) 2D SAXS patterns at initial state, maximum load at each cycle and final state; (d) 1D line profiles of WAXS patterns at corresponding states in (a); and (e) 1D electron density correlation functions from SAXS patterns for lamella structure analysis.
