Description

A kind of in situ quantitation heating arrangement for electron microscope
Technical field
Electron microscope accessory of the present invention and micro Nano material in site measurement research field, relate to a kind of in situ quantitation heating arrangement for electron microscope.
Background technology
Electron microscope refers to the microscope being carried out imaging by electronics, such as transmission electron microscope and scanning electron microscope.Original position electron microscope (in-situTEM) technology refers to by transforming electron microscope and specimen holder thereof, other external drives are applied to sample, as power, heat, electricity etc., and the technology of the real-time monitored pattern of sample, dynamic changing process of structure under the effect of these external drives.
Sample for electron microscope especially transmission electron microscope can be divided into two types, a kind of nano material being Bottom-up approach and growing, as nano particle, nano wire etc., the sign of this sample is comparatively easy, only needs sample dispersion to observe to carrying on the net.Another kind be top-down approach by macroscopical sample preparation, generally have two kinds of methods, a kind of is traditional by the mode of grinding and polishing, block sample is thinned to tens microns, then is thinned to tens to hundreds of nanometer thickness by the method for two spray/ion milling.For needing the occasion (as interface, distorted area etc.) of observing ad-hoc location, this method success ratio is very low, is difficult to fixed point observation.Another kind is the extraction method (liftout) utilized in focused ion beam (FIB) technology, block sample fixed point is cut into 1-2um thick, the thin slice of 10-20um length/width, with nano-machine hand, thin slice is proposed from block sample again, again flakelet is soldered to special year of FIB online, finally with FIB, flakelet is thinned to tens to hundreds of nanometer thickness.This method can fix a point to make sample for use in transmitted electron microscope, therefore more and more welcome.
In recent years, electron microscope situ heating technique achieves a series of progress, achieves a series of progress in the field such as working mechanism, inefficacy mechanism of the nano particles such as catalyzer.But the nano material (as nano particle, nano wire) that existing add in-place thermal station spininess grows Bottom-up approach designs, the heating of the sample for use in transmitted electron microscope prepared for top-down approach still lacks effective means.Investigation shows, can not meet researchist carries out in situ quantitative study demand under high spatial resolution Electronic Speculum heating test board to the sample from macroscopical sample preparation in the market completely.
Can be used in the market can being divided into two classes from the electron microscope add in-place thermal station of block materials heating, namely traditional stove formula heating and MEMS heating.
Stove formula heating (as Gatan628 uniclinal heating pole) is by by the miniaturization of traditional macro warm table, macroscopical sample is processed into the flake of Φ 3mm by modes such as grinding and polishing, two spray, ion millings, by fixed resistance silk, whole Φ 3mm sample is heated below sample.For effective area of observation coverage of sample, this type of heating heating volume is excessive, thus presents huge thermal drift in electron microscope after magnification at high multiple, and this makes, and the dynamic high power observation in heating and cooling process is extremely difficult to be carried out.Another shortcoming of such warm table is that area of observation coverage sample temperature is difficult to accurate control, and heat-stable time is long, and heat/cool rates is excessively slow, limits the experimental phenomena that can observe.In addition, for needing the experiment carrying out fixed point observation, the success ratio of this sample preparation mode is very low.
MEMS heating refers to the warm table with the miniature heating region processed by MEMS technology.The resistance of MEMS warm table general special metal, semiconductor heats sample.This warm table is little owing to heating volume, and can obtain very little thermal drift, and can compare accurate control to the temperature of sample area, development in recent years is rapid.But this kind of sample stage is mainly for the heating design of the material such as nano particle, nano wire, be film-form heating region centered by sample stage, surrounding is the structure in thick district, is difficult to the sample prepared from macroscopic material to be transferred to above it.Can only process the thin district for transmission electron microscope observing at present in advance in macroscopic material, Zai Jiangbao district transfers to both sides, heating plate Shang Bingbao district deposition Pt and fixes.But this method exists following two problems: first, transfer to after on heating plate cannot carry out thinning in Zai Duibao district due to sample, the Pt deposited during fixed sample therefore cannot be avoided the pollution in the thin district of sample; Secondly, for the consideration of extraction method success ratio, be difficult in advance thin for sample district is worked into very thin.Therefore the sample that this method makes is difficult to meet the demand of carrying out carrying out testing under higher spatial resolution.
Above-mentioned all In Situ Heating devices for electron microscope, due to the defect of design, all cannot meet researchist carries out quantitative heating research under high spatial resolution condition demand to the sample prepared by macroscopic material.
