3.4.4 Specimen Mounting on Stub
The sequences of specimen mounting on stub are as follows.
1) Cut out the carbon tape with scissors.
The length of tape should be a little longer
than material size.
2) Put the tape on stub plate.
3) Adhear the material on surface of stub plate.
At this time, be sure to adhere it with the
side to be photographed up. The specimen
should be fixed on stub plate and do not
overlap the specimens.
4) After you put the material to plate, blow it
with blower so that powder or dust may not
get into the chamber.
The size of specimen should be adjusted to be within stub inside. Specimen should be fixed
on stub with carbon tape as you can’t get exact images during specimen observation if
specimen is shaken.
Fix all the specimens on stub and then remove the dust or contaminant with blower. (When
you put it in vacuum chamber as it is, the lens system or vacuum system performance can
be deteriorated. Therefore, prepare the specimen with contaminant removed as much as
possible.)
