Patent Searching and Data


Title:
荷電粒子光学装置における試料キャリアの温度を測定する方法
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP5855429
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method of determining the temperature of a sample carrier in a charged particle-optical apparatus, characterized in that the method comprises the observation of the sample carrier with a beam of charged particles, the observation giving information about the temperature of the sample carrier. The invention is based on the insight that a charged particle optical apparatus, such as a TEM, STEM, SEM or FIB, can be used to observe temperature related changes of a sample carrier. The changes may be mechanical changes (e.g. of a bimetal), crystallographic changes (e.g. of a perovskite), and luminescent changes (in intensity or decay time). In a preferred embodiment the sample carrier shows two bimetals (210a, 21 0b), showing metals (208, 210) with different thermal expansion coefficients, bending in opposite directions. The distance between the two bimetals is used as a thermometer.
