Bare TEM Grids – Reference Type (Finder Grids)
TEM grids with reference markings designed for easy identification and relocation of specific sample areas.
Description
🔹 Description
Reference TEM grids, also known as finder or locator grids, feature alphanumeric or patterned markings that allow users to identify and relocate specific regions on the grid during analysis.
These grids are especially useful for tracking areas of interest across multiple imaging sessions or different microscopes.
