Abstract
A microscope stage has been designed and constructed which permits microscopic observation of metal specimens from the temperature of liquid nitrogen to an upper temperature usually determined by the melting point of the specimen. The stage consists of a vacuum‐tight water or liquid nitrogen‐cooled copper chamber in which a specimen is heated by passage of an electric current. A quartz window in the chamber permits ``at temperature'' observation of the specimen. Operation of this stage is described.
