(a) and (b) showing, respectively, EBSD- phase and kernel average misorientation (KAM) maps showing the strain localization. c Polarized light microscope images show the 8 × 16 microdroplet matrix where the PD polarization tests were performed. The microdroplets are ~3 μm in diameter. d A contour plot of the Icorr values regressed via Tafel fitting the collected polarization curves shown in (e). A 20 mM LiCl solution was used in the scanning-PD analysis.
