Problems solved by technology

However, the application of existing in-situ MEMS chips still has its limitations. Generally, only the Focused Ion Beam (FIB) system can be used for sample transfer and fixation, which limits the conditions of use and greatly increases the cost of use.
In addition, the focused ion beam system cannot avoid contamination of the sample during sample transfer and fixation, but the existing in-situ MEMS chip cannot process the sample after the transfer and fixation of the sample
The above limitations limit the application of in-situ MEMS chips to a large extent, and there is currently no good solution

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of in-situ testing of nanomaterial properties, more specifically, to a nanomaterial transmission electron microscope in-situ testing chip, a chip preparation method and an application thereof. Background technique [0002] In recent years, nanomaterials have attracted widespread attention in the field of scientific research due to their nanoscale properties such as small size effects, surface effects, quantum size effects, and macroscopic quantum tunneling effects. Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) is a powerful modern material characterization method, which is used to analyze the fine structure smaller than 0.2 μm that cannot be seen clearly under the optical microscope. Today's TEM is capable of sub-Angstrom resolution and is a powerful tool for analyzing nanomaterials. Nanomaterials have peculiar effects in the fields of electricity, heat, and mechanics. With the development of microelectromechanica...
