20 different photographs taken with special techniques using microscopes. Each design includes the name of the specimen shown.

While microscopy once relied on simple tools such as compound microscopes, scientists today use complex models such as scanning electron microscopes. Rather than simply “zoom in” on the object in front of the lens, a scanning electron microscope fires a beam of electrons at the sample. The signals produced by the electrons as they interact with the sample are what produce the image. These microscopes allow scientists to see beyond what a powerful lens could ever reveal.
