Electron microscopes utilize a beam of accelerated electrons as a source of illumination, as opposed to light microscopy which uses visible light. By using electrons which have wavelengths about 100,000 times shorter than visible light photons, electron microscopes have vastly higher resolving power than light-based versions and can image objects as small as individual atoms. There are two main...
