Sample preparation is of central importance for the characterization of materials by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). As a guide to researchers seeking practical help on the use of all types of TEM sample preparation techniques, we have created an Internet website. This website has been designed in French and is now translated into English. The website is accessible free of charge.
The TEMSAMPREP website, figure 1 http://temsamprep.in2p3.fr/, is the result of a synergistic effort of an atypical team of five electron microscopy scientists having different research specialties in physics, mineralogy, material science, and biology. They shared five years of human adventure in creating the website to transmit their 30 years of TEM experience to the international community.
