The electrical conductivity of materials used for the specimen holders must not interfere with the coil’s electromagnetic fields. Moreover, the specimen holders must exhibit extreme resistance to heat. The advanced silicon nitride ceramics used here offer all of the material properties required to meet these specifications. All of the ceramic parts on the specimen holders are manufactured by Baden-Württemburg-based CeramTec.
