ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a method for increasing the measurement information available from a transmission electron microscope, said information relating to a measurement sample, comprising the step of: including, in said transmission electron microscope, an atomic force microscopy device. This invention also relates to a transmission electron microscopy device, characterised in that a transmission electron microscope is combined with an atomic force microscope, positioned within said transmission electron microscope. Finally, the invention relates to a device for insertion in a transmission electron microscope, characterised in that said device comprises an atomic force microscopy device.
