Most state-of-the-art high-resolution imaging techniques are limited to probing the sample surface. This is a particular drawback for the characterization of twinned materials as the strain state changes from biaxial at the surface to triaxial in the bulk, dramatically influencing the functional properties. Here, we demonstrate mapping of nanotwin variants highly localized in the bulk utilizing the full reciprocal space intensity distributions obtained from Dark-Field X-Ray micorscopy. We demonstrate our method for a high-performance polycrystalline ferroelectric/ferroelastic (Ba,Ca)(Zr,Ti)O3 model system whose excellent piezoelectric properties originate from domain sizes of 10-100 nm. We find that the density of twin variants inside the grain is 30% smaller compared to the density in the vicinity of the grain boundary, following the trend of the elastic energy. The obtained elasto-morphological correlations are crucial for many twinned materials, ranging from complex oxides to martensitic materials or high entropy alloys.
