contamination
contamination
Hydrocarbons deposited on a specimen surface condense at an electron-beam irradiation area by the electrostatic force of the electron beam and are polymerized by the electron beam. This phenomenon is called "(specimen) contamination." Contamination is particularly severe when a small specimen area is irradiated with a focused, high-density electron beam, for example CBED or STEM.
