Abstract
A sample dispersion device capable of preparing a measurement sample in the most suitable dispersion state without repreparing the measurement sample many times, is one that by introducing sample particles into a container and injecting the sample particles in the container using a pressure difference, disperses sample particles onto a holding member provided in a container to make the holding member hold the sample particles. The holding member has a holding surface made to hold the sample particles; and the holding surface has multiple portions having mutually different tilt angles.
Claims8
A sample dispersion device comprising:
- a container into which sample particles are introduced using a pressure difference;
- and
- a holding member provided in the container, the holding member holding the sample particles that have been introduced into the container using the pressure difference, wherein:
- the holding member has a holding surface made to hold the sample particles;
- and
- the holding surface has multiple portions having mutually different tilt angles.
A sample dispersion method that introduces sample particles into a container, and disperses sample particles onto a holding member provided in the container to make the holding member hold the sample particles, the sample dispersion method comprising:
- an injection step of injecting the sample particles into the container using a pressure difference;
- and
- a holding step of making the holding member hold the injected sample particles, wherein
- in the holding step, the holding member provided with a holding surface having multiple portions having mutually different tilt angles is made to hold the sample particles.
