SUMMARY A system of specimen mounting discs and holders has been developed for use in high vacuum. Discs are held in place with a tightly fitting cap, thus avoiding the use of adhesives. The mounting discs are especially convenient for biological preparations, are much less expensive than conventional SEM ‘stubs’ and are easier to handle and store.
