1 TEM Method for Loading Plural Specimens on One Grid for Observing TEM and Specimen Loading Device

摘要

The present invention relates to a sample loading method and a sample loading apparatus for loading a plurality of samples on a grid when observing a sample by TEM, thereby enabling observation of a plurality of samples by one TEM apparatus setting. More specifically, (A) horizontally mounting a mask having one or a plurality of openings of a size less than of the effective sub-area of the grid at a predetermined height of one vertical upper portion of the horizontally placed grid; (B) horizontally mounting the ultrasonic vibrator at a predetermined height above the mask opening so that the mist plate faces downward; (C) loading the sample liquid on the upper surface of the ultrasonic vibrator and operating the ultrasonic vibrator; (D) replacing or washing the ultrasonic vibrator and the mask in another region not overlapping one region of the grid, and repeating the steps (A) to (C) with another sample liquid A method for loading a plurality of samples onto a grid for observing the TEM, and a sample loading apparatus therefor.;
