Abstract
A furnace is described for use with the electron diffraction camera for the study of chemical and physical reactions occurring on surfaces up to 1000°C. The specimens are mounted in the body of a 25 Cr-12 Ni alloy block which is surrounded by a series of radiation shields. The metal block is heated internally by a tungsten-wire heating element mounted on a BeO core and operates in a hydrogen atmosphere. The several motions necessary for manipulation of the specimens are accomplished through a Wilson seal. Temperatures of 1000°C are achieved with a heat input of the order of 450 to 500 watts in forty minutes. The use of the furnace is illustrated.Keywords
