Embodiment 1

[0031] In this example, brittle, non-conductive and difficult-to-process SiC ceramics are selected for special sample preparation for three-dimensional nano-X-ray microscopy, and the steps are as follows:

[0032] Step 1: First, use the cold mounting method to inlay the sample, and after standing for 24 hours, cut the inlaid sample with a diamond saw to prepare an initial sample with a thickness of 1mm.

[0033] Step 2: Choose different types of diamond sandpaper to polish the initial samples obtained in step 1 in sequence. The type of sandpaper is selected in order of 200#, 400#, 800#, 1200# and 2000#, and the surface roughness of the sample is polished to 2 microns.

[0034] Step 3: After completing step 2, treat the cold-mounted sample with acetone to remove the mounting material and keep the target sample. The surface size of the sample with irregular edges is about 5 mm x 5 mm, and the thickness is about 30 microns.

[0035] Step 4: Choose a blade with high sharpness, t...

Embodiment 2

[0043] In this example, GCr15 bearing steel is selected for three-dimensional nano X-ray microscope special sample preparation, the steps are as follows:

[0044] Step 1: Firstly, a sheet-shaped initial sample with a thickness of about 1.5 mm is cut from a square block of GCr15 bearing steel by wire electric discharge cutting method.

[0045] Step 2: Choose different types of diamond sandpaper to polish the initial samples obtained in step 1 in sequence. The type of sandpaper is selected in order of 200#, 400#, 800#, 1200#, 2000# and 3500#, and the surface roughness of the sample is polished to 0.5 microns.

[0046] Step 3: After step 2 is completed, the size of the square sample is about 7mm×7mm, and the thickness is about 10 microns.

[0047] Step 4: Choose a blade with high sharpness, that is, choose such as figure 2 As shown in (a), the blade with such an edge shape meets the requirements for use and can cut out straight edges.

[0048] And as figure 2 As shown in (b...

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of X-ray imaging, and in particular relates to a method for preparing a special sample for a three-dimensional nanometer X-ray microscope. The method includes the following steps: selecting a preliminary processing method to prepare an initial sample; selecting sandpaper according to the hardness of the material, and grinding the initial sample to a roughness of less than 3 microns; selecting a blade with high sharpness, whose edge shape is a straight line, and can cut straightness On the good side, take the two-knife method on the initial sample to cut the sharp corner sample; choose quick-drying glue, stick the sharp corner sample to the end of a pin or similar metal rod, and place it for 24 hours. Three-dimensional imaging tests of different ratios and different contrasts. The invention can greatly reduce the difficulty of sample preparation and meet the requirement of 50nm spatial resolution three-dimensional imaging of different materials. Use 3D nano-X-ray microscopy to obtain more structural information inside multi-scale heterogeneous materials such as metals, ceramics and composite materials.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of X-ray imaging, and in particular relates to a method for preparing a special sample for a three-dimensional nanometer X-ray microscope. Background technique [0002] In recent years, with the rapid development of X-ray tubes, X-ray optical devices and computer systems, X-ray imaging technology has been rapidly improved. X-ray 3D imaging technology is widely used in various fields such as material science, mineral analysis, life science, electronic devices and archaeology. By revealing the heterogeneous information of the subsurface and interior of materials or devices, such as: three-dimensional spatial distribution and quantitative information of pores, cracks, segregation, inclusions, second phases, and multi-level construction phases, the composition-structure-performance or service The relationship between performance has strongly promoted the development of various disciplines. At present, the spat...
