Brief history of electron microscopy in Mexico and the world
Main Article Content
Abstract
The contribution of the electron microscope to nanosciences has been exceptional since it is the type of equipment that allows the study and analysis of nanometric materials. A brief historical review of the discovery and evolution of the transmission electron microscope (TEM) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) and the installation in Mexico of these electron microscopes is presented. The writing is in such a way that the text and illustrations complement each other.
