Abstract

A sample support of the present invention is prepared such that a silicon substrate is used as a raw material, the thickness structure having a shape and a thickness of 10 μm or less is prepared using a semiconductor silicon process technique. The sample support of the present invention is adhered to a partially-cut mesh in a state that a sample portion is not adhered. Further, a plurality of portions where the samples are mounted is arranged on the same substrate.

Claims (7)

1. A sample support in which the thickness structure having a two-dimensional shape and a thickness of 10 μm or less is prepared using a silicon substrate as a raw material by a semiconductor silicon process technique.

2. A sample support according to claim 1 , wherein the thickness structure having the two-dimensional shape is formed into a terraced configuration and a sample fixing portion is formed on an uppermost stage of a terrace.

3. A sample support according to claim 2 , wherein the sample support is adhered to a partially-cut mesh in a state that a sample portion is not applied to the mesh.

4. A sample support according to claim 3 , wherein a plurality of portions on which the samples are mounted are arranged on the same substrate.

5. A sample support according to claim 2 , wherein a plurality of portions on which the samples are mounted are arranged on the same substrate.

6. A sample support according to claim 1 , wherein the sample support is adhered to a partially-cut mesh in a state that a sample portion is not applied to the mesh.

7. A sample support according to claim 1 , wherein a plurality of portions on which the samples are mounted are arranged on the same substrate.
