Abstract:
A method and system for creating an asymmetrical lamella for use in an ex situ TEM, SEM, or STEM procedure is disclosed. The shape of the lamella provides for easy orientation such that a region of interest in the lamella can be placed over a hole in a carbon film providing minimal optical and spectral interference from the carbon film during TEM, SEM, or STEM procedure of chemical analysis.
