Description

This is an improved simple sample holder for peices of semiconductor wafers for optical experiments.

This component is part of the Open source optics project, whose goal is to radically reduce the cost of scientific optical hardware: appropedia.org/Category:Open_source_optics by the Michigan Tech's Open Sustainability Technology Research Group.http://www.mse.mtu.edu/MOST

Instructions

This open-source sample holder is designed to hold a semiconductor wafer part on a smooth 8mm diameter rod.

This is an improvement on the last version - as now you can change samples easily using tweezers and one hand only. It uses less plastic than v2 and has a cutout for samples that are short.

Print on your favorite open source 3-D printer and enjoy. You can hold it to the smooth rod using m3s and the thumbscrew.

Use the thumb screw from thingiverse.com/thing:30500

If you need the base go to thingiverse.com/thing:28133
