The phrase "a thin sample" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts where you are describing a sample that has a small thickness or is not substantial in size.
Example: "In our experiment, we used a thin sample of the material to observe its properties under stress."
Alternatives: "a slim sample" or "a narrow sample".
A thin sample of LiNbO3 crystal is utilized as a retarder for wide-ranging applications.
One of the most exciting, the transmission electron microscope (TEM), operates by streaming a beam of electrons through a thin sample of material.
The most right POM image of a magnetic-aligned 255 mg ml−1 solution of G20T-duplexes, taken from a thin sample area located at the walls of a round X-ray capillary.
In high pressure research, static megabar pressures are typically produced by compression of a thin sample by two diamonds in various types of diamond anvil cells.
A thin sample serves as both a "window" into the corrosion cell through which the proton beam passes completely, and the sample for assessing irradiation accelerated corrosion.
In order to study high-pressure phase transformations (PTs), high static pressure is produced by compressing a thin sample within a high strength gasket in a diamond anvil cell (DAC).
This paper reports studies of a thin sampling calorimeter concept for the ACCESS thin ionization calorimeter.
For the past year, a Monte Carlo simulation study of a thin sampling calorimeter (TSC) design has been conducted to predict the detector performance and to design the system for achieving the ACCESS scientific objectives.
In addition, simulations of the detector's response to an assumed broken power law cosmic ray spectrum in the region where the 'knee' of the cosmic ray spectrum is believed to occur have been conducted and clearly show that a thin sampling calorimeter can provide sufficiently accurate estimates of the spectral parameters to meet the science requirements of ACCESS.
Moreover, a thinner sample and a higher UV-light intensity resulted in a shorter gelation time, a higher degree of cure and a faster cure.
In a thinner sample with thickness of ∼1.6 nm, the maximum MR value is only 68% @ 7 T @ 280 K, which is two orders of magnitude smaller than those in the thicker samples.
