Fluorescent microscope
A microscope is used mainly in labs . A microscope is equipped with a tiny lens that acts like a magnifying glass.
Scanning Electronic microscope
Scanning electron microscope.
Scanning tunneling microscope
A scanning probe microscope is used for observing, studying and measuring surfaces on a fine scale to the level of atoms and molecules. One can find more information about these on Wikipedia.
Scanning tunneling electron microscope
to see images of surface at the atomic level!
There are six different types of microscopes used in the life science. There is the light microscope, phase contrast microscope, fluorescent microscope, electron microscope, atomic force microscope, and scanning tunnelling microscope.
An Electron Microscope is used to study the contents of a nucleus.
You're probably thinking of the scanning electron microscope. But it could be anything. Your question is not specific enough.
A scanning electron microscope is best used for this application. The microscope is powerful enough to view the indentations on a butterfly wing.
In 1981 the Scanning Tunneling Microscope (STM) was invented. The STM has ultrahigh resolution and can image single atoms.
They could use an electron microscope or an STM (scanning tunneling microscope)
