The present contribution details the experimental operations with their respective conditions step by step. Finally high resolution TEM (HREM) observations of a CVD grown epilayer on a unnintentionally doped HPHT (001) oriented substrate are present to show the high quality of the sample preparation method. %K Homoepitaxial diamond %K electrons microscopy %K FIB-dual beam %~ Universidad de Cádiz
