[0074] The conductive head 111 is located in the fixed sleeve 115 on the side of the shroud 54, the conductive head 111 moves axially along the fixed sleeve 115, and then the conductive head 111 contacts and conducts electricity with the conductive body 10.

[0076] The conductive head 111 is abutted on the outer surface of the conductive body 10, and the sample supporting plate 51 is electrically connected with the conductive head 111 through the conductive column 112, the connecting wire 113 and the wire clamp 116, so that the conductive body 10 can pass the bias voltage to the sample supporting plate 51, thereby having the bias cleaning function.
[0077] Therefore, the conductive path is in sequence: the bias cleaning vacuum feedthrough 9, the conductive body 10, the conductive head 111, the connecting wire 113, the conductive column 112, the sample supporting plate 51 and the sample 13.
[0078] The conductive head 111 is abutted on the outer surface of the conductive body 10, and the sample supporting plate 51 is electrically connected with the conductive head 111 through the conductive column 112, the connecting wire 113 and the wire clamp 116, so that the conductive body 10 can pass the bias voltage to the sample supporting plate 51, thereby having the bias cleaning function.
