Abstract:
The purpose of the present invention is to provide a specimen holder having a structure capable of maintaining a seal surface regardless of a change of environment. A specimen holder according to the present invention is characterized by comprising a specimen holder axis part having a specimen and/or a specimen mesh setting part, an external cylinder part capable of housing the specimen holder axis part, and a seal part for sealing the specimen and/or the specimen mesh setting part from atmosphere wherein the seal part is set to a step part which is set to a portion of the external cylinder part. Further, in a referred embodiment of a specimen holder according to the present invention, it is characterized in that the seal part set to the step part is as a first seal part, further the specimen holder has a second seal part which exists in a tip part of the specimen holder and exists in a direction of a central axis of an electron microscope comparing to the specimen and/or the specimen mesh setting part.

Abstract:
In at least one embodiment, a specimen holder includes a specimen holder shaft unit having a specimen and/or specimen mesh setting unit, an outer tubular unit capable of housing the specimen holder shaft unit, a thermal drift adjusting unit made of a material having a different thermal expansion coefficient from a thermal expansion coefficient of the specimen holder shaft unit and partially in contact with the specimen holder shaft unit, and a control mechanism which controls movement of the thermal drift adjusting unit toward a center direction of a specimen.
Abstract:
In at least one embodiment, a specimen holder tip part comprises a specimen setting seat, a specimen mesh for mounting a specimen, a specimen holding part for holding the specimen mesh and a clamping part that clamps the specimen holding part.
Abstract:
A specimen holder includes a specimen shaft unit having a specimen and/or specimen mesh setting unit; an outer tubular unit capable of housing the specimen holder shaft unit; a cooling unit; and a thermoelectric element placed close to the cooling unit. In certain examples, the thermoelectric element may use at least one effect selected from the Peltier effect and the Thomson effect.
