EMS GRIDS & TEM SUPPORT FILMS CATALOG EDITION V LIFT-OUT GRIDS


zzz Carb-N-Grids™ 2 & 4 Post 3mm Lift-Out Grids


A durable carbon lift-out grid that facilitates precise Elemental Analysis.


Most common lift-out grids are made of copper, nickel, gold and molybdenum, which can all have inherent disadvantages in some scenarios. Carb-N-Grids™ facilitate precise Elemental Analysis by avoiding false peaks that can result from similar materials inside and outside samples. Their unique carbon formula eliminates the need to constantly change grid materials for like samples. In EDS analysis, the difference between the sample and the carbon grid is visible.


zzz Silicon Nitride Lift-Out TEM Windows Low-stress silicon nitride for lift-out applications Available with or without gold contacts.


State Of The Art — Our expert engineering and MEMS fabrication processes allow us to provide these one of a kind silicon nitride lift-out grids.


Open Half-Grid Shape — Our Silicon Nitride Lift-Out TEM Windows feature a large, robust window with a freely suspended side along one length of the window, providing an easily accessed edge for sample preparation and thinning to electron transparency (e.g. 50 nm or less).


Ready To Use Gold Contacts — 200 nm thick gold contacts for sample electrical biasing or heating are formatted for FIB-based sample preparation methods.

A view through the electron column down onto the Lift-Out Grid is shown in image (a). In this position the Lift-Out Grid is perpendicular to its edge-on position relative to the electron beam column used to attach the lamella. A higher magnification image of the lamella and silicon nitride membrane is shown in image (b), and an even higher magnification is shown in image (c). Image (d) shows an angled perspective of the Lift-Out Grid and lamella.
