A microscope that uses magnets to ficus an electron beam on or through a specimen resulting in a practical resolution that is 100-fold greater than that of a light microscope using standard techniques.
electron microscope
A microscope that uses an electron beam to scam the surface of a sample, coated with metal atoms, to study details in its topography.
scanning electron microscope (SEM)
A microscope that passes an electron beam through very tin sections stained with metal atoms and is primarily used to study the internal ultrastructure of cells
transmission electron microscope
