Mass production of cross-section TEM samples by focused ion beam deposition and anisotropic etching

A method of preparing a TEM sample. A focused ion beam is used to deposit a mask on the material to be sampled. Reactive ion etching removes material not protected by the mask, leaving a wall thin enough to be imaged by TEM.
