Abstract
The current state of microwave microscopy and millimeter waves, its advantages and challenges are summarized. Although traditional optical microscopy and its recent variants, which include super-resolution methods, is by far the most versatile and used microscopy in science, there are specific applications in which microscopy in ranges of the electromagnetic spectrum with greater wavelength can provide physical information not accessible with optics. This article summarizes some recent examples, particularly those developed in Mexico.
