6.4.1. Preparing the sample holder
IMPORTANT
Contamination caused by fingerprints can lead to vacuum deterioration or prolonged
pumping times. Always wear lint-free gloves when touching specimen, sample holder or
stage.
Procedure
1 To attach a specimen to the stub, use conduc-
tive carbon, adhesive metal, carbon tape or
similar.
Ensure that the specimen area that you want
to analyse is in proper contact with the stub.
2 Use tweezers, to insert the stub into the sam-
ple holder.
3 Tighten the location screw with the Allen
wrench, to fix the stub to the sample holder.
