✦ Synopsis


Abstract

The specimen holder for scanning electron microscopy described herein allows a single specimen to be examined in any possible view and significantly improves object illumination. The specimen is glued to a fine pin and flexibly mounted on a double‐sided adhesive conductive pad on a rotatable pivot. A milled pot placed beneath the specimen acts as an electron trap. This provides a homogeneous black image background by minimizing noisy signals from the specimen's surroundings. Microsc. Res. Tech. 73:1073–1076, 2010. Β© 2010 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
