Abstract
A transmission electron microscope (TEM) micro-grid includes a pure carbon grid having a plurality of holes defined therein and at least one carbon nanotube film covering the holes. A method for manufacturing a TEM micro-grid includes following steps. A pure carbon grid precursor and at least one carbon nanotube film are first provided. The at least one carbon nanotube film is disposed on a surface of the pure carbon grid precursor. The pure carbon grid precursor and the at least one carbon nanotube film are then cut to form the TEM micro-grid in desired shape.
