Mirror.
Two types of microscope use two types of illumination. The old reflect mirror type use a mirror beneath the slide to gather light from the room and concentrate it on the slide. You wiggle the mirror around while looking through the 'scope until you get the brightest field. The second type of microscope uses an integral light source located beneath the slide. These are expensive, because the light must be as pure as possible and evenly bright across the viewing field.
compound microscope is one
An Atomic Force microscope is the most powerful type
Sticking your head out to look; a simple mirror on a stick; a periscope-type device; a fibreoptic camera and screen.
Mirror.
A simple microscope similar to a magnifying lens.
You would use a very simple light microscope. These worms can easily be seen without one.
The type of microscopy that uses chemical stains to add color and increase contrast is light. The type of microscope that can be used to observe very small surface details is called a scanning electron.
There are several type of microscopes, mainly, the one that we use in lab is a simple light microscope or a compound microscope. Then we have the phase contrast microscope, fluorescent microscope, electron microscope (transmission electron microscope [TEM] and scanning electron microscope [SEM]), confocal microscope and even dissection microscope the one which we use during dissections.
There are more than one type of light microscopes as well as other types of microscopes such as the SEM. The first microscopes were (and still being used) are the simple light microscopes. The compound microscope has that name because it contains two types of lenses that function to magnify an object. A simple microscope is a microscope that uses only one lens for magnification. It is the original design of the light microscope. Van Leeuwenhoek’s research used this type.
The compound microscope is the simple microscope used in the early days for higher magnification to view specimens such as cells. The compound microscope is the standard microscope used commonly nowadays. The digital microscope is a type of optical microscope which makes use of camera and optics to be able to view the images from the microscope to the computer.

The simple microscope, defined as having one lens, was enhanced by Leeuwenhoek. Many of the compound (multiple lensed) microscopes were blurry, but Leeuwenhoek ground his own lenses.
