Pre-tilt stub holders are useful for FIB/SEM systems to get the sample perpendicular with the FIB column to allow for straight FIB milling in to the surface of the sample. The pre-tilt angles are complementary to the angles between the FIB column and the electron beam column. When pre-tilt stub holders are used, there is no need to tilt the sample stage. Three types are available:
