Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide a sample heating device for microscope capable of satisfactorily cleaning a sample and satisfactorily observing the sample in the heated state. CONSTITUTION:When a sample 1 is cleaned, a current is carried between electrodes 2, 2' to electrically heat the sample 1. The sample 1 is heated to a high temperature by the electric heating, and the cleaning of the sample 1 is satisfactorily conducted. At this time, a heater part 8a is not in contact with the sample 1. When the sample 1 is observed in the heated state, a current is carried to electrodes 9, 9' to heat a heater wire 8c. The heater part 8a is heated by the heating of the heater wire 8c. A bimetal 7 making contact with an indirect heating element 8 is also heated by the heating of the indirect heating element 8, and the bimetal 7 is curved. The indirect heating element 8 is raised by the curve of the bimetal 7, and the heater part 8a makes contact with the sample 1. The sample 1 is efficiently heated by this contact, and the sample 1 in the heated state can be satisfactorily observed.
