Summary Introduction

To determine:

The microscopic technique that provides sharp pictures of three-dimensional structures at high magnification.

Introduction:

The microscopic structures cannot be observed with unaided eyes. Hence, various techniques have been developed for this purpose. The microscopic techniques for visualization include light and electron microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The light microscopy utilizes light beam for visualization while electron microscopy involves electron beams for the same.
