Mounting the sample on a substrate with the spring contact
For measurements requiring electrical contact between the sample and the instrument, it is
recommended to use a specialized substrate equipped with the spring contact
(see Fig. 6-7).

1. Fix the sample on the substrate with the spring contact with glue or double-sided sticky
tape.
2. Move the spring contact with tweezers and place it close to the edge of the sample
(see Fig. 6-8).
