Summary Introduction
To determine:
The application of the principle “electron travels as waves” on microscopy.
Introduction:
Microscopes are used to obtain a clear image of a sample by magnification and increasing the resolution of the samples using light or electron beams. Antony van Leeuwenhoek was the first person to develop microscope and started studying microbes.
