Abstract
Description
The present invention relates to a sample loading apparatus that allows a plurality of samples to be observed by setting one TEM apparatus by loading a plurality of samples on one grid when the sample is observed with a TEM.
Conventionally, in order to observe a sample with a TEM, the following sample preparation process and sample observation process are performed.
① Sample preparation process (process of loading sample on grid)
First, the sample is well dispersed in a dispersion medium (for example, alcohol) and allowed to stand or centrifuge to precipitate large particles. Then, the sample is loaded into the grid by grasping the grid with a predetermined tweezer, immersing it in the upper layer of the dispersion medium, and taking it out. The dispersion medium is dried naturally or is removed by filter paper and dried.
② Sample Observation Process (The process of observing and loading a sample loaded grid on TEM)
The prepared sample grid (sample-loaded grid) was attached to a TEM holder according to a conventional method, and the holder was placed in a column (column) of a TEM through an air lock, the column was evacuated and the holder was moved to the sample stage .
However, in the sample observation process, only one sample grid can be observed at one time, and it takes a long time to complete the observation after the holder is inserted into the column, and then prepare for the next sample grid mounting. It takes a considerable amount of time to observe all the samples.

However, according to the above-described technique, the concept of loading the sample on the grid by the sample mist by ultrasonic vibration has been proposed. However, since a plurality of samples are loaded depending on the operator's sense, very care has to be taken so that the samples are not cross- .
An object of the present invention is to provide a sample loading apparatus which can accurately observe a plurality of samples in a short period of time by loading a plurality of samples on one grid without cross contamination by mounting the sample grid once.
