Abstract:
The present invention refers to a two-systems compact specimen holder (SH) easy to use which enables to analyze the same sample by employing either an atomic force microscope (AFM) or a scanning electron microscope (SEM), by preserving the setting reference of the details for both microscopies, so that it satisfies the requirements of size, conductivity, magnetization, tidiness, reference and adaptability.The capacity of preserving the location reference of the details for both microscopies, in the scope of correlational microscopy, results essential to obtain information and images in both fields of microscopy, which can be correlated in order to acquire valuable combined information.
