Abstract
In an existing specimen cryo holder, a change in the orientation of a specimen would lead to tilting of a dewar together with the specimen and hence to bubbling of a cooling source contained in the dewar. In view of this, a specimen cryo holder, including a mechanism capable of cooling a specimen while keeping the posture of a dewar in a fixed direction even when the specimen is tilted into a direction suitable for processing or observation thereof, is provided. Also provided is a dewar in which a vacuum maintenance mechanism is mounted to an outer vessel so that an inner vessel holding a cooling source therein is vacuum-insulated from the outside air.
