5.7.1.1 Using the Sample Type Selection Function
The sample type selection function enables the user to obtain an image of any specimen quickly,
i.e. a reference image, without putting any effort in selecting the operating parameters (vacuum
mode, acceleration voltage, probe current, and detector). The quality of the initial image can sub-
sequently be improved, if necessary, by modifying the imaging parameters.
Procedure
1. From the
Panel Configuration Bar
, select
Sample Type Selection
.
à
The
Sample Type Selection
menu is dis-
played.
2. Select a sample type that is similar to the sample under analysis.
à
A dialog is displayed asking you to provide more information about the sample under
analysis.
3. Enter the relevant parameters.
à
When the information regarding the specimen status is provided, the software runs
macros that are assigned to the different specimen types, with predefined parameters
and vacuum settings.
