SUMMARY A new procedure has been developed to produce thin foils of uranium and its alloys for transmission electron microscopy. The procedure is a two‐step electrochemical cleaning‐thinning process which produces self‐supporting discs. This procedure was used to produce thin foils of the most important alloys of uranium.
