Diagram illustrating the method used to load a Bal-tec HPM010 (now sold as ABRA HPM010) HPF holder. The method can be adapted for other manufacturers’ models; however, the basic “sandwich” structure should remain constant. Spacer rings, sapphire discs and nickel grid all 3 mm in diameter. Sapphire discs thickness 100 μm, nickel grid thickness 50 μm. Diagram from [14]
