Overview

Rave Scientific offers the EM-Tec stub based SEM sample holders which are small SEM sample holders based on (modified) SEM sample stubs. They have the same footprint as the original SEM sample stubs and are directly compatible with the SEM stage or SEM sample stub holder.  These affordable sample holders increase efficiency and reduce sample preparation time. Using sample holders reduces the use of conductive adhesives which can be a source of contamination. The EM-Tec stub based small sample holders formats are:   

  • Standard pin stub based compact sample holders
  • JEOL cylinder stub based sample holders
  • Hitachi M4 stub based sample

The pin stub based sample holders comprise the largest selection; they can be easily used on other SEM platforms by using the cost efficient EM-Tec SEM stub adapters. All EM-Tec compact SEM stub based SEM sample holders are precision machined from vacuum grade aluminum unless otherwise noted. Provided with set screws and allen keys.

The head of the mount is attached to the pin via a swivel hinge which allows for 90 degrees tilting each way. Excellent mount for SEMs without tilting facilities or when random tilt angled are needed. When the desired tilt angle is set, the top is secured with a socket cap screw. Top diameter is 15mm and height above pin is 15mm.
