Description

Objective table and microscope for transmission-electron back scattering diffraction analysis of slice sample
Technical Field
The utility model relates to a scanning electron microscope analysis and test field, in particular to an objective table that is used for thin slice sample transmission-electron back of body diffraction analysis.
Background
In 1913, the bragg diffraction phenomenon is proposed by william-larens bragg and william-henlebox, and bragg diffraction is generated after an incident electron beam interacts with a crystal material sample in an electron microscope, so that the bragg law is followed, and the crystallographic information of the material can be obtained by using bragg diffraction signals. In a Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), Electron Back Scattering Diffraction (EBSD) of a block sample, namely reflected electron diffraction information, is mainly utilized, the diffraction analysis area size is hundreds of nanometers to several centimeters, the detection space solid angle is large, the angular resolution is high, but the spatial resolution is slightly poor, and the scanning electron microscope has no capability of detecting a fine structure below hundreds of nanometers; the Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) mainly utilizes transmission electron diffraction information of an analysis area with the thickness of a slice sample being less than 100nm, the spatial resolution reaches 0.1nm, and information such as tiny precipitated phases, dislocation substructures, dislocation density distribution and the like can be accurately measured, but the analysis area is small, the angular resolution is low, only local crystal information can be obtained, and particularly, the statistical property of the test result is poor when the inhomogeneous deformation microstructure is researched.
Transmission Kikuchi Diffraction (TKD) is a new method for SEM to perform crystal structure and orientation imaging analysis of electron transmission thin sample by using transmission electrons. The sheet sample for TEM observation is observed in SEM to collect transmitted electron diffraction information for material crystallography analysis, and the two analysis methods have the advantages of high spatial resolution, high angular resolution and wide analysis area. Meanwhile, signals such as reflection electron diffraction patterns, secondary electrons, back scattered electrons and the like can be collected, general scanning analysis is carried out on the transmission sample, and the analysis has higher spatial resolution than that of a block material due to the fact that the depth of action of the transmission sample and an electron beam is small.
Unlike the typical scanning sample without the requirement of external dimension, the transmission sample is generally a slice sample with the diameter of 3mm, and the electron diffraction analysis also requires that the sample has a certain tilting angle relative to the electron beam, and has certain requirement on a stage for loading the sample.
The traditional loading mode is that a sample is directly adhered to an objective table with a certain tilting angle by using viscose, and the mode is difficult to ensure that the analysis surface of the sample is strictly positioned on an inclined plane with a specific angle; elastic viscose such as carbon viscose also easily causes sample drift in the analysis process; because the sample is thin, the bonded sample is difficult to remove from the objective table, and even if the bonded sample is removed, the bonded sample can not be deformed, so that the bonded sample can not be used for secondary analysis of TEM or SEM.
