The ion-milling machine, with accessories and ancillary apparatus will          be used for the preparation of thin foil specimens suitable for                 examination by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), such as                  precipitation strengthened ZnS, various refractory metal silicides and          glassy materials containing microscopic pores, as well as proton                irradiated intermetallic compounds to be examined in cross-section.  The        proposed apparatus will also enable the routine examination of the              microstructures of deformed ceramic materials, metal and ceramic matrix         composites and metallic alloys that are sometimes inadvertently coated          with an oxide layer after conventional electropolishing.  More exotic           cross-sectional TEM specimen preparation of electronic device materials         prepared by MBE, and oxide substrates on which small metal clusters have        been deposited, is expected to become a possibility as a consequence of         the acquisition of the proposed apparatus.
