The following web article is based on FEI's "An Introduction to Electron
Microscopy" booklet, and is intended for students and others interested in
learning more about the history, technology, and instruments behind this fascinating
field of scientific inquiry. The goal is to provide an overview of how electron
and ion beam microscopes work, the results they can produce, and how researchers
and scientists are using this data to address some of the greatest challenges of
our time.
