This holder is used for quickly checking up to four TEM grids in the SEM or as a grid holder for a carbon evaporator.Īll three EM-Tec TEM grid holders are only available with a standard 3.2mm pin. Grooves are provided for easy loading/unloading of the TEM grids with fine tweezers. TEM grid rim rests on a ledge in the middle of each cavity there is dimple to provide a non-touching area for the mesh of the grid.

STEM imaging which requires a special TEM grid holder with integrated conversion plateĮM-Tec TEM grid holders for surface imaging and EDX analysis with an SEM.surface imaging and investigation require TEM grid holders.There are two methods of imaging TEM samples and they require differetn type of TEM grid holders: An SEM or rather FESEM can also be used to check TEM samples or lamellas made with a FIB before inserting in a TEM. These are clear advantages for SEM/EDX studies of thin films, fine dispersions, inclusions, precipitations and low-Z materials. This enables improved surface imaging and increased spatial resolution. TEM samples are very thin and therefore don’t exhibit signal originating from bulk.
