Electron beams.
An electron microscope can reach a far greater magnifiction than a conventional microscope. It is obvious that the largest advantage of any type of microscope is to observe an organism that can not be seen by the unaided eye. Light microscopes are easy to use, can magnify up to 2000 times, enable magnification of live cells and their movement, and are relatively cheap compared to electron microscopes. The only disadvantage is that it can only magnify up to 1000 times, after that the image is blurry, whereas an electron microscope can magnify up to 100,000 times! However, electron microscopes are extremely expensive, difficult to use, and cannot observe live specimens.
It uses electron beam
Light microscopes use ordinary light (either reflected naturally or from an artificial source such as built-in illumination) in conjunction with very powerful optical lenses to view tiny objects that are not visible to the naked eye. But some extremely small objects, such as viruses, are too small to be seen even using light microscopes. Electron microscopes solve the problem by firing a beam of electrons on to the object to create an imprinted image, which is then magnified and viewed on a screen- we can't magnify the image of the object itself, but we can magnify the imprint of it made by a continuous bombardment of it by electron beams and get this copied from the screen. Electron microscopes were first developed by the Germans during WW2, possibly with the aim of developing biological weapons- the Allies captured the technology after the fall of Hitler and developed it for the benefit of all humankind.
the electrons are used to use to create an image apposed to the light because the beam of electrons has a smaller wavelength than light. This results in electron microscopes having a higher resolving power tham optical (light microscopes) Instead of lenses, the elctron microscopes use magnetic condensors to focus the beam. An image is generated by the electrons hitting a electrosensetive board connected to a computer. Each electron that lands on the board causes a voltage accross the board. The computer then generates an image from many voltages produced by the electrons

Electromagnets focus the electron beam on the specimen. This is a good advantage of electron microscopes over traditional light microscopes where lenses have to be used. Electromagnets can be used as electrons are charged particles and are deflected by magnetic fields.
yes
they magnify the image of the cell, not the actual cell

Light microscope uses light to magnify a specimen. Human or plant cells, bacteria, and protists can be observed and analyzed using light microscopes. For much smaller things like virus or macromolecules, you will need much stronger microscopes, such as scanning electron microscopes.
light microscopes allow light to pass through the specimen and use two lenses to form an image. Electron microscopes use beams of electrons, rather than light, to produce images.
Sample illumination is achieved in different ways in a light and electron microscope.In a light microscope, the sample is illuminates with light (photon energy)In an electron microscope, the sample is illuminated by a beam of electrons.Devon
