ABSTRACT:
A sample holder and ion-beam processing system are offered which permit a good sample adapted for observation (such as TEM (transmission electron microscopy) observation). The sample holder has a sample placement portion having a sample adhering surface. The holder further includes a shielding material guide portion placed over the sample placement portion. The guide portion is fixedly mounted to the sample placement portion and has a shielding material guide surface. The sample adhering surface is in a position lower than the position of the shielding material guide surface by a given amount of 40 μm. Therefore, when the sample having a thickness of 100 μm is attached to the sample adhering surface, the sample protrudes 60 μm ahead of the shielding material guide surface. The shielding material having a thickness of about 20 μm is then placed in position over the shielding material guide surface.
