From cmcg at stanford.edu Tue Sep 14 22:51:19 2010 From: cmcg at stanford.edu (Chris McGuinness) Date: Tue, 14 Sep 2010 22:51:19 -0700 (PDT) Subject: mount for small pieces Message-ID: <1061782228.81785.1284529879548.JavaMail.root@zm02.stanford.edu> Hi all, There used to be a small sample mount in the tweezer tray on top of the SEM that could fit pieces slightly thicker than normal wafers. Rather than the tiny aluminum mounts with the thin dowel sticking out the bottom, there was one that was a basic cylinder, with a thicker slot than the rest. Has anyone seen this or know what happened to it? It wouldn't be hard to make a replacement, but it would be more convenient to use that one if its still around somewhere.
